Over 60 years after my father ended his seven years with Strategic Air Command, he was forced to maintain secrecy his entire life.

It was a one in a billion chance meeting last August with a flight test engineer who works at the same plant where my father worked on the original Galaxy C5A rollout team - that made me realize that I needed to investigate my father's past "Cold War espionage life"

Within two weeks, I was able to determine his exact role in detail by using his 1972 resume and targeted questions to determine that he was lied to by the Air Force about how dangerous his job would be.

As an elite Electronics Intelligence Officer with Strategic Air Command, he played a critical role in identifying gaps in the Soviet Union's radar system.

In this article written by Smithsonian Magazine, my father's position is described correctly. He flew dangerous missions at night. His were mainly from Japan to the border of the Soviet Union.

His life ( and his colleagues) were in extreme danger on every mission. They never knew if they woukd make it home alive.

There were no guns, no American fighter jets nearby to help. These men were USED as " bait" in these reconnaissance missions.

The military made it clear to them. If your plane goes down, you are on your own.

This translated to extreme stress, hypervigilance and ultimately undiagnosed, untreated PTSD for years.
My father could never share anything- with anyone. Not even a therapist.

As I am currently processing everything he went through, I can clearly see the intergenerational trauma that my family suffered as a result of what dad went through.

10/18/2026

Imagine this: It’s 1949.

A brilliant young man from Savannah with a passion for law applies to the University of Georgia with dreams of becoming an attorney.

But UGA Law rejects his application simply because he is Jewish.

Slammed by discrimination, he has to find another career path.

An Air Force recruiter pitches him an elite career as an electronics intelligence officer and navigator—a future of prestige and high-tech strategy.

His sharp mind and technical perfectionism made him vital for Strategic Air Command (SAC).

His job was one of the most critical roles at SAC.
He developed detailed maps- calculated with precision that SAC commanders would give SAC bomber pilots- so they knew exactly how to fly safely "under the radar."

But he—and thousands of other young officers and airmen—were systematically lied to about the reality of their jobs.

They were never told how terrifyingly dangerous it would be.

They didn't tell him he’d fly near-suicide "bait" missions, skimming the Soviet Union's border with absolutely no protection. No guns, no fighter escorts, completely unarmed to intentionally trigger enemy radar.

They didn't tell him that if his plane was shot down, the Air Force would cover it up, telling his family the plane just disappeared.

And they never told him he would be locked in a mental prison of absolute silence, legally barred from sharing this severe trauma with his friends, his wife, his children, or a therapist.

Make no mistake. The Cold War was a REAL WAR.
My father was a "Silent Warrior" who carried the psychological burden of knowing how close we were to nuclear annihilation.

For decades, our family lived in the shadow of his unspoken trauma. He protected the world from turning to ashes, but no one protected him—or my mother.

My father never got to tell his story. But I am going to. Follow along as I break the silence.

When your physician prescribes a medication, do you just fill it at your pharmacy and start taking it without any thought?

Here is a true story of why you should NEVER blindly take any medication.

Case Study:
Patient is a middle aged female who has a long term history of chronic fungal sinus infections confirmed through CT scans.

She meets with her Ear, Throat and Nose physician for what presents as a potential, severe sinus infection.

She has been under the care of this specialist for two years and they have a positive patient-physician relationship with open dialog and mutual respect. He is highly experienced in his specialized field and has been practicing for over twenty-five years.

He had the patient on a very strong, compounded antifungal nasal wash/rinse (Itraconazole with a topical steroid) for over a year to prevent her from developing a severe sinus fungal infection.

She stopped taking the sinus rinse a few months prior to this appointment.

Reason: She had been monitoring her liver with her primary care physician and her liver enzymes had been high for several months.

After examining the patient at this recent appointment, the specialist determines she has a severe sinus infection. He takes a sinus specimen sample to culture for bacteria.
He prescribes two weeks of an oral antibiotic for what he believes is a bacterial infection but understands she could also have a fungal infection.

The patient expresses concern about also treating for a fungal infection.

He advises her to refill the compounded antifungal nasal wash to treat her sinuses, swish a little inside her mouth and swallow it to eradicate the fungal infection in her gut.

The patient goes home, calls the compounding pharmacy and speaks to the pharmacist.

After explaining what her ENT specialist has instructed her to do with regards to oral consumption, the pharmacist immediately says NO.

This nasal wash is NOT intended for oral consumption and could cause damage if taken orally.

The patient calls the physician's office two weeks later to discover the culture was negative for bacteria. The nurse leaves her a voice mail message, including the same, incorrect nasal wash instructions from the consult notes.

HOW DO I KNOW THIS?
Because the patient was ME!

This is why:
1. ALWAYS utilize your pharmacist as a trusted resource
2. NEVER assume that your physician comprehends the potential side effects and dangers of medications.
3. My high performing clients retain me.

Would you have just followed the physician's prescription instructions blindly?

Imagine what damage might have occurred if you did?

For this , that’s me on the far left of this 1992 Reebok group photo! I’m wearing an oversized shirt from the famous "Dan & Dave" Olympic ad campaign—a true time capsule from a moment when everyone was gearing up for the Barcelona Summer Games.

Back then, I was the original Apparel Account Manager for Reebok Southern Division here in Atlanta. It was a thrilling, high-velocity era of growth.

Our divisional office managed a massive footprint from the Southeast coast all the way to Texas. It was fast-paced and high-energy, and our team actually won the top customer service division award in the company for keeping it all moving flawlessly.

My connection to sports started long before Reebok—from throwing a baseball with my brother in the backyard in Savannah to winning a high school softball state championship. I have always loved the mindset of being a driven, high-performing person.

The truest test of that grit, though, came later in life.

Years down the road, I faced a major health challenge. It took me years to find answers- challenging me physically and emotionally.

Through my years of trials, I had to turn to God to develop faith/ spiritual strength.

I honed my health detective skills and slowly assembled my complex puzzle.

I fought to get my health back and refused to give up.

When you are a naturally high-performing, driven person, facing a medical crisis that you cannot out-work, out-train, or control is a completely humbling experience. It changes how you view everything.

That multi-year battle to get well is the exact catalyst that led me to start my consulting business.

I don't talk about this often and I don't know how many people have clicked the links in my bio, read my blogs or viewed my past video interviews.

When I look at this 1992 photo, I’m reminded that the girl in the oversized shirt had no idea the storms she would eventually have to navigate.

It took every ounce of the athletic grit I learned in my youth to survive those sick years and regain my health.

Words of wisdom:
Don't wait until you have an emergency. It will cost you dearly and not solve a complex illness.
