by W. Wesley Johnston (Author)
Wesley Johnston's Dad survived WWII but died when Wesley was only 8. Wesley had a few fragments of stories, a scrapbook and some WWII souvenirs but little notion of what his Dad had seen and done. After seeing Quentin Aanenson's autobiographical "A Fighter Pilot's Story", Wesley wondered what documentary his Dad would have made if he had lived. And so he resolved to find out. He soon realized that what we was learning about how to do this research could help others and began the Dad's War web site and workshops. Health forced him to stop the workshops, but the workshop book and web site continue to help others seeking to find and tell their own father's WWII story.
