Maverick Radar Airman

Maverick Radar Airman chronicles author J.B. Randers’ journey through the tumultuous 1960’s, a decade which certainly lived up its theme song, “The Times They Are A-Changing.” Wars and asssassinations were happening everywhere, but so were movements promoting civil rights, women’s rights, voting rights and equal pay. J.B. reflected the diversity of those fascinating days by being both a serious thinker and a bit of a “wild child,” a respecter of tradition and an enthusiast for what’s new, a pacifist and an activist. While much of the historical events of the 60s happened in the southern and western United States, where Jim was stationed, he was also up on the frozen
tundra of Alaska serving his country in its Air Force. However, cold temperatures don’t freeze history. This book follows Jim’s progress through that very eventful time. Enjoy as he shares his military odyssey!
