I would like to thank God for my success and my blessing at being born an American. As I never thought I would live past forty, I am in awe of my world being seen through fifty-year-old eyes. My first grandchild, Emma, has changed and inspired me and has made life seem even more precious.
Special thanks to Jo-Ann and Harley Grove. Without their input and editing skills there is no doubt that my part of the project would not have been as constructive.
Last, thank you to the hundreds of thousands of you who have bought and enjoyed our books. You have both humbled and inspired me.
God bless America and our troops.
Dr. Howard E. Wasdin D.C.
I’d like to thank Reiko, Kent, and Maria for their emotional support and inspiration. Also, I appreciate Carol Scarr for her excellent editing advice for earlier drafts of Outcasts and Easy Day for the Dead.
