Trying to Do His Part: The Life Story of Retired Major Cecil Eldridge Johnston - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Alone on a cold Italian mountaintop in World War II, CECIL E. JOHNSTON, a wet, hungry GI with no idea what was coming next, made a covenant with God. His prayer was answered and Johnston began trying to do his part. What followed was meritorious military service, lengthy public service, a wide spectrum of community service and an outstanding professional record. Now 89, the retired U.S. Army major delivers a Meals on Wheels route "to the old folks" as he terms it, participates in his civic club, a committee erecting a state war veterans memorial in his central Oklahoma hometown, other civic and patriotic activities and chairs his church's administrative board. Johnston is still trying to do his part of the long-ago covenant. This, his life story, describes that effort and how he's used hard work, determination, ingenuity and courage to be successful in many areas from his teens to today-2010.
