"Roger
Ball!" is more than the odyssey of Captain John Monroe "Hawk" Smith, Navy fighter pilot. In keeping with the bedrock principals of the
Golden Rule Society and Our G3 Gang, "Roger Ball!" is also a true and gripping account of valor, sacrifice, and adventure during one of the most tumultuous periods in carrier aviation.
Hawk Smith, like so many young men, was fascinated with airplanes. What distinguished him from millions of other young men was a dream he could actually fly. He was accepted into the Navy flight program and immediately entered a world of great risks and tremendous opportunities for those who dared. For thirty years Hawk served his nation. Guided by an unbending set of moral principals to duty and to his shipmates and propelled by a spirit for adventure and an unwavering commitment to improve Navy tactical aviation, he became a legendary tactician and an extraordinary leader.
Art Martin of the F-14 Tomcat Association said it this way, “Roger
Ball!, is a ‘must read’ for any young man or woman considering a career in Naval aviation! Donald Auten pulls no punches in telling the story of the life of a Naval aviator—the good times and the bad times. Reading this book, you’ll get to live the life of an extraordinary Navy fighter pilot.”
