Stone in a Sling

"Stone In A Sling" is the true, gripping story of a soldier named Scott Meehan and his experiences over a 25-year military career. Starting his career as a private and retiring as a major, Meehan is a professional who puts duty and honor above self-interest. Beginning in the city of Bogota with a terrorist bombing, the journey weaves through the path of intrigue during the Cold War in Berlin, and intensifies during Desert Storm, reaching its philosophical and theological conclusion in Iraq during Operation Iraqi Freedom. Scott sets you right into the action with a book that is hard to put down, vividly describing military life portraying the army wife and family, daily irritations of the desert, exploding bombs, and wintery cold of Berlin. His accounts of the miracles, his relationship with God, and relationships with multicultural people across the globe depict a study in character, values, integrity, faith and selflessness. This is an unforgettable account about a man who embodies the best in our nation--and the good in us all.
