    3. Hi everyone, Marilyn gave me permission to post this announcement. I wanted to let you know that if you are still thinking of a perfect Father's Day gift (or birthday gift or gift for yourself) then you may want to consider the book that we just published late last year called *In Their Honor: The Men Behind the Names of Our Military Installations*, by Linda D. Swink. (Hardbound with dust jacket--$39.95) Linda was in the U.S. Air Force for 15 years, her husband was in the U.S. Army for 10 years, and her father was a U.S. Marine. As she went to the various bases, airfields, etc. and asked what that person did to be honored to have a millitary establishment named after them, she found that most, of all ranks, did not know. So she set out to discover the answer and has included 524 brief biographies of these men and their backgrounds and accomplishments. The book has been well recieved and has a foreword by Major General Mechenbier. It is currently being considered for an Army Historical award. We will know this month. Linda is schedule to sign the book at *Joseph Beth Booksellers* in Cincinnati, Ohio, tomorrow (*Monday, June 7, 2010*) at *7:00 p.m.* If you cannot make it and want to have a signed copy for a gift (or yourself), I have several copies in my office. You may read more about it on my Web site at www.littlemiamibooks.com and see a photo of the beautiful cover at www.bn.com (Barnes and Noble Web site). This is a most interesting read and the short biographies mean you can skip around and just pick up on any page and find an interesting story. I hope to see you at Joseph Beth tomorrow. Please contact me if you have any questions.
