Waiting for the "Word": Recollections of my life in the United States Navy ReviewI really enjoyed WWII Navy veteran Ulmon Bray's short memoir of his days in the U.S. Navy "Waiting For The Word". It was much more than I thought it was going to be. It also provided a little in-depth look at life during those war years. His book is truly a coming of age tale. He doesn't dwell on all the air combat that he eventually faced in the Pacific with the Japanese but allows you to get to know his youth self first.
The book is a look backwards in time at a period of life that this current generation might never fully understand or appreciate. It captures a time when life seemed much more innocent despite the world being at war. The author reveals his "youthful" heart and soul as he recreates his personal history. His experiences are entertaining, insightful, funny and at times both sad and tragic. His airborne combat missions seem to be very much under played - showing a rare humility that is seldom seen in personal war memoirs. He doesn't try to create a heroic image of himself - but it comes through in spite of it.
I strongly recommend this book to all ages of readers. It will provide a history lesson on a very personal level where it can be better understood. It is an easy to read story that will hold your fullest attention. It is about a hero who doesn't brag but tells it from his heart! It doesn't get much better!Waiting for the "Word": Recollections of my life in the United States Navy Overview
