He was devastated to learn that he should’ve joined the CIA instead because the military doesn’t have that particular enlisted job. Regardless, he fell in love with the military and made it both a passion and a career, retiring with 23 years of service. Rod spent 11 of those years as a first sergeant, helping to solve the problems of the enlisted corps. Since his retirement from the military in 1998, Rod has become a world renowned military careers expert. Through his highly popular U.S. Military Information Web site on About.com (http://usmilitary.about.com), Rod has advised thousands of troops about all aspects of the U.S. Armed Forces career information. Rod is the proud father of twin girls, both of whom enjoy successful careers in the United State Air Force. Rod currently resides in Daytona Beach, Florida, where he attempts to prove that there’s no such thing as too much sunshine. Even today, Powers tries to run his life according to long-lived military ideals and standards, but he gets a bit confused about why nobody will obey his orders anymore. Jennifer Lawler has published nearly 20 books on topics ranging from country music to kick- boxing. One of her books, Martial Arts For Dummies, was published by Wiley. A former college English teacher, she taught test-prep skills to students before leaving the teaching profession to become a full-time writer — not that teaching made her tear her hair out or anything. Lawler never made it to boot camp, but she can do more pushups than a lot of people her age. She teaches martial arts to children with special needs and lives with her daughter and two rambunctious dogs. 01_106716 ffirs.qxp 4/30/07 9:27 PM Page iv 01_106716 ffirs.qxp 4/30/07 9:27 PM Page v Dedication To Jeanie and Chrissy — because everything is for you.
