Part Three: The CIA Secret Airline and Eureka! She Exists is way more than an exposé of covert foreign operations. Diverse and widely separated genres abound. You will turn no page without excitement and concern. It begins in Southeast Asia where Roger is witness to the defilement of humanity, seeing firsthand, the results of flawed military policy, and most importantly—the never understood will of the Vietnamese “silent majority;” the real reason the War was from the onset—unwinnable. Back in the states, divorced but dedicated to being the best provider for his family, he finds himself pitifully out of touch with all that surrounds him. After a series of endeavors—including a nausea-provoking “pyramid sales” scheme, he retreats to more familiar territory. You will accompany him on ten-hour Atlantic crossings and all-night flights across the Sahara—the sole pilot in small aircraft that were in no way designed for either! Have a cup of tea with Judy Garland; experience a UFO sighting over the Caspian Sea, jungle crashes, Roger’s capture, and his vision-saving surgery at the Clinica Barraquer in Barcelona (where he happens to share a private dinner with John and Yoko)! Sadly, these exploits do not mask the deficiency that has subjugated his being. Contending with an ill-fitting world, he continues to seek that one magic, but now historically fated-to-failure union. Ashamed and embarrassed he sincerely and apologetically strives to explain to you his life-altering condition and his otherwise inexplicable behavior. However! Readers will be surprised and gratified; unable not to leap to their feet and applaud an entirely unexpected but spectacular turn of events at the end of this part.

The summer of 64—the height of the Cold War! You will gain a new respect (or frightening concern) for the military component of our foreign policy. Marine captain Roger Yahnke is assigned as a nuclear weapons delivery pilot aboard a US supercarrier.  He is assigned his own aircraft, his own bomb, and his own target—an Eastern Bloc city that he will vaporize should the Russians launch one ballistic missile westward (or someone somewhere think they did). Standby for compelling (some mirthful, some tragicΓÇòall engaging) shipboard events. But that’s nothing compared to what happens when he’s ashore!  In each exciting port of call—though certainly not God-gifted with the flair it should take, he somehow cobbles the élan to meet newer, grander, and more exciting people; is invited to their secret haunts and becomes involved in scenarios he never dreamt existed. From the bronzed and oiled hedonism of the Cote d’Azur beaches, to bargaining with the KGB in an abandoned house in Bulgaria; from a jail cell in Istanbul where he spends the night with an international film star, to a sunny veranda on the island of Rhodes where he lunches with an exiled king, The French Riviera, Leo, June, and Big Trouble recounts Roger’s baptism to another world and his desperate struggle with his own crippling dilemma. The cruise ends, but not soon enough. Roger has gotten the scent and is forever altered.Although the value of the series could well rest on the merits of the unnerving escapades, exciting venues, and intriguing characters, above all and throughout it is a compelling tale of one man’s battle with an embarrassing shortcoming; an honest (and ultimately shocking) account of a uniquely driven life.
