During her childhood, Lee Summers came to realize what a special
father she had in Henry Sonnenfeld, a former US Marine. He
instilled discipline and commitment in her, and he taught her about
sacrifice, heroism, and patriotism. Best of all, he had wonderful
bedtime stories. Never Anticipate the Command is the first in a
series to share Henry's remarkable stories of being a US Marine
during World War II and the Korean War. As told through his
daughter, Henry reveals how, as a young man from New Jersey, he
enlisted in the US Marine Corps after Pearl Harbor and fought the
Japanese in the brutal Pacific campaign. Henry relates those first
few harrowing days as a marine and the grueling training regimen on
Parris Island. With remarkably vivid details, he recounts life on
the island of Bougainville; tells the tale of his island pet, a
womp-cat named Bougie Sam; and describes watching Pappy Boyington's
Black Sheep Squadron perform. Never Anticipate the Command recalls
an era when men rose to action to protect their country. It shows
how one man in particular served God, his country, and his
family-in that order.
