Adams Chronicles: Volume VII.: Wild Blue Yonder Louis E Adams

About the book... Born and raised on a farm near the small town of Chillicothe, Ohio, Louis E. Adams (Lou) knocked around at several jobs, making hay and doing odd jobs on the farm until he graduated high school in May 1953. Growing up on a farm, several miles from an airport, he long had an interest in planes and a secret desire to become a pilot. First, he served in the U. S. Navy with two brothers who were with him on the U. S. S. Tarawa (CVS-40). William Bert was a fellow Hospital Corpsman, and Charles Edward was a Machinist Mate. Lou finally learned to fly a T-34B while in the Navy at Kenitra, Morocco and logged several hours as a pilot in an Aero Club. He got his IFR Rating years later at Hogan's Field in Hamilton, Ohio, near Cincinnati.
