I was honored to be interviewed by author, former Rhodesian soldier, and entrepreneur Peter Wright and his partner in business, Kathleen Beauvais on their interesting podcast, Yak-King
It has been a while since I shared some of the reason why it took so long to finish Thirty Days Has September and also the Arch Patton CIA adventures
Enjoy the interview and get to Know Peter and Kathleen
Thank you Jim for writing “Thirty Days Has September” and now the Cowardly Lion. I have just finished listening to your interview with Peter Wright and Kathleen Beauvais. Excellent information. I feel you through your writing, and now knowing more, feel a easy friendship to you. Thank you again for what you have done, what you are doing, and your service. Tom S
That was a really nice comment and timely to read; That ‘easy friendship’ bit deep.
Thank you for the depth of those words. They reached me and I got that wonderful message. I am not easy, and I know
it, but you made me think I am!
Semper fi,
Jim
Hi Jim
Just watched your interview and was very impressed
I learned a whole lot more about you and it was a pleasure to put a face on a friend that I’ve never met
I served Aug. 66 – Aug 72
I’m always amazed how you answer every single message that is sent to you
Keep up the great work
Always waiting for your next chapter
Stay safe & healthy

You are remarkable for putting down your feelings about what you watched in such a humane and meaningful fashion. Certainly reached me, and I wonder
how many others. Thanks for the great comment, and yes, I am answering it like I have the 22,675 that have come before. I find it most curative and
healing to be ‘involved’ with the vets like you on here.
Thanks so much.
Semper fi,
Jim
Jim,
Appreciated you sharing your journey as writer and author. Thirty Days has September is above comparison. Applause was the only thing missing at the end of the interview.

I appreciate your continued support on this Journey, Glenn

Great interview. No one can deny your depth as a human and a survivor.
Thanks so much Jim, as I am never sure what’s going to come out when I sit for one of those.

Lt Col. Anthony B Herbert was the author of Soldier , I live five miles from where he grew up . Although I never had the privilege of meeting him , members of my extended family knew him and always believed him to be an honorable soldier and man .
Tony Herbert was the only man to ever read part of my original manuscript! We met in a bar, of all places.
He told me that he would help me get it published but that If I did publish I would be forever known for
being a Vietnam Vet and a very controversial one at the time, when racial tensions were so high. I would have to
take a lot of stuff out of it. I demurred and retired the first draft to my closet floor where it stayed. He was a great guy.
Semper fi,
Jim
