Unauthorized Disclosures

In the winter of 1980, Rod Haynes was broke and all but homeless on the streets of Seattle. Six months later, on a sunny parade field at the Newport Rhode Island Navy Base, the author accepted his commission as an officer in the United States Navy. His remarkable 10-year journey took him around the world including Guantanamo Bay, Italy, Beirut, Israel, and France. This honest, engaging narrative shares Hayne's journey of self-discovery as the Cold War was ending.
