Larry Pate is an Oklahoma native, living mostly in the Tulsa area.

After graduation from high school he joined the Air National Guard, wanting to “see the world”. His six-year enlistment included a period of active duty during the Berlin Crisis.

His civilian career required that he write Quality Control manuals along with technical reports, and he soon realized formal training was needed.

The trade schools and college courses he attended gave him insight into a new world of writing.

The seed was planted, a thought turned into a story to tell and this book was brought to life.
