    While writing my first published book, I had the privilege of interviewing Herschel "Woody" Williams, West Virginia's only living Medal of Honor recipient.

    He took out several pillboxes on Iwo Jima, with nothing other than a flame thrower and some explosives.

    Meeting him was one of the great honors of my life.
