The Military Hall of Fame

“A browsing treat for celebrity lovers and military buffs alike.”—Booklist

They are men and women who achieved fame in entertainment, in politics, in sports, and other fields. They all have one thing in common: early in their lives they served in the U.S. military. In lively, concise and fact-filled prose, author Scott Baron presents illuminating short military biographies of these famous people in a book that is both perfect for both the trivia buff and the history fan who thought he knew everything. THE MILITARY HALL OF FAME makes history come alive in a way that is both entertaining and unexpected.

His interest in law enforcement continued upon his return to civilian life, and he worked in the field for over a decade as a border patrolman, railroad special agent, and police officer.
