Ken Hamrick learns first hand of the destructive actions of his Sayonara Heart in thwarting any romantic relationship development. A broken heart persuades him to join the Navy. Throughout the next twenty-two years, he experiences one destroyed relationship after another, sandwiched between near muggings in San Francisco, Kaohsiung, and Hong Kong; ‘friendly fire’ in Fallon, Nevada; attempted murder charges; and smuggling a foreign national to the States on a destroyer; all while a volunteer member of a Top Secret National Defense Program involving unheard of power.

Reviews

“For anyone who really enjoys a book that will keep you turning pages in anticipation of the next experience. The Sayonara Heart, exciting until the very end and a story you will long remember. Very easy read. Great work”
..… Beverly Steinberg,
CEO, Segway of Oakland and multi-book club member.

“Finally, a man willing to discuss the romantic side of a U. S. Navy career alongside the macho experiences for which sailors are renowned. I particularly enjoyed the various experiences he had on the USS Bradley while serving during the Viet Nam era.”
…..Bud Sutton,
