After completing Amphibious Warfare Training School in San Diego, California, Lester served four years in Japan as the Boat Group Commander for the USS MAGOFFIN, APA199. His duty was to supervise the water combat-equipped troops disembarking the side of the ship into 16 landing craft personnel boats. While aboard the MAGOFFIN, Lester advanced from Lieutenant Junior Grade to Lieutenant. During his time in port, Lester served as Second Division Officer responsible for all training. From 1961-1971, he served as a Lieutenant Commander. For many years, he drilled with Reserve units in New Jersey one night a week. Lester assumed command of a military training group of over 100 New Jersey young adults who would soon be entering boot camp. Lester retired after being honorably discharged for more than 22 years of service. Lester has worked with the Lyons American Legion to lead a parade featuring programs and speakers on the military experience. He took over the Veterans Day ceremonies and has talked with many school classes about his service.

  • Ulysses Joyce, James
    Ulysses Joyce, James Published: 1922 Categorie(s): Fiction, Literary Source: http://gutenberg.org 1 About Joyce: James Augustine Aloysius Joyce (Irish Séamus Seoighe; 2 February 1882 – 13 January 1941) was an Irish expatriate writer, widely considered to be one of the most influential writers of the 20th century. He is best known for his landmark novels Ulysses (1922) and Finnegans Wake (1939), the short story collection Dubliners (1914) and the semi-autobiographic- al novel A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (1916). Al- though his adult life was largely spent outside the country, Joyce's fictional universe is firmly rooted in Dublin and provide the settings and much of the subject matter for all his fiction. In particular, his tempestuous early relationship with the Irish Roman Catholic Church is reflected through a similar inner conflict in his recurrent alter ego Stephen Dedalus. As the res- ult of his minute attentiveness to a personal locale and his self- imposed exile and influence throughout Europe, Joyce became simultaneously one of the most cosmopolitan and one of the most local of all the great English language writers.
