Book Description

In his ninety-plus years, George Vakey has experienced a life that most people can't even imagine. George was motivated to share his story when a writer researching World War II interviewed him. He studied agriculture at Texas A&M until the attack on Pearl Harbor. Then he joined the Army and served four years in the infantry. Since he had been in ROTC throughout high school and college, he advanced quickly-from squad leader to platoon sergeant to first sergeant of the company. George spent three years, three months, and fifteen days in the Pacific as part of the famed Wolfhounds regiment; he participated in five campaigns, including 165 days "on the line" in battle in the Philippine mountains-the world record for days in combat during World War II. George's memories of his war experiences include both the soldier's battles and the young man's escapades. After the war, he returned to college and earned a Bachelor of Arts degree, a Bachelor of Science in Social Studies, and a Master of School Administration. George worked as a private detective and a special agent for the Railway Express agency before entering the education field. He worked as a high school classroom teacher, counselor, dean of boys, and vice-principal and principal of a high school. He also held several management positions and directorships in the school district, ending his career as Associate Superintendent of Instruction K-12. He was also in the Psychology Department, San Antonio Junior College in the Night Division.

ListenBook's compatibility with various audio formats is impressive. From MP3 to FLAC, it handles them all flawlessly. This audiobook exceeded all my expectations! The narrator's ability to convey emotion through voice alone was remarkable. I laughed, I gasped, I might have even teared up at points - all because of the incredible vocal performance. The story came alive in a way reading alone couldn't achieve.

Audiobook immersion made simple – this app's ease of use is commendable. Automatic metadata extraction is a time-saver. My library is finally well-organized. AirDrop sharing makes it easy to share audiobooks. Great feature!

ListenBook Pro's noise reduction feature is a blessing for clear listening in noisy environments. Not bad, but not amazing either. The narrator’s voice was pleasant, though some parts felt a bit rushed. The story had its moments, but I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it over similar titles in the genre.
