About this ebook
As a 96-year-old WWII veteran this story I'm telling is about my experiences during the war and some very interesting stories about my life including working for the mafia, being involved with the demise of the zoot suiters and various stories about Marilyn Monroe, and my friendships at Calvet in West Los Angeles near the homes of Marilyn and OJ Simpson. And my interview from Washington honoring me on the same program honoring General Douglas Mc Arthur and Admiral Chester Nimitz. Plus, other memories from me you will enjoy.
