This is a memoir about a young man making career choices and dealing with his sexuality, all within the structure and discipline of the United States Army from 1955 to 1957. With performances in the Soldier Shows on WGN-TV in Chicago, and as a winner in the All-Army Talent Contest, his talent carried him to the Ed Sullivan Television Show and a world tour in an all-Army revue called Rolling Along of 1956. There he met his mentor, Scotty. The book is anecdotal, historical, amusing, and may be of help to other young men and women facing similar dilemmas in their lives. It pays tribute to those who were drafted and found a way to continue the development of their talents while in the military-and to the very appreciative military audiences throughout the world.
