On our 45th anniversary, 2005

We're the Webner's from Sun City Carolina Lakes in South Carolina. That's just south of Charlotte. We love Sun City but we formerly lived in Columbus, Ohio -- the Buckeye State (the only state to fly a burgee) . . . home of The Ohio State University Buckeyes . . . Mother of Presidents!   (Why is it called the Buckeye State? I'm glad you asked. Check out Howe's Historical Collections of Ohio.)

 


In October 1962, the United States and Soviet Russia nearly played into a world-wide nuclear holocaust which historian Arthur M. Schlessinger, Jr., called "the most dangerous moment in human history." The errors in judgement and diplomacy during the Cuban Missile Crisis, by both sides, are only now being fully realized. Were it not for the readiness and dedication of our men and women in uniform, it may have been a different story. But men did die during the Cuban Missile Crisis and one of them was my brother-in-law whom I hardly knew. Capt. Bob Dennis was an electronic warfare officer aboard a sophisticated B-47 outfitted for black ops reconnaissance when the aircraft went down in Bermuda, killing all aboard. Were it not for several coincidences, Bob would not have been aboard that flight. But then, was it really such a coincidence? To review the book, click here.
