the Call
A Memoir of Navy, CIA, and a Life of Service
Bruce L. Woodyard
Commander, USN (Ret.)
Prologue
In order to know a person, or at least to understand them, you must know something about where he or she comes from - how and where they grew up, what their family and childhood were like, and how that impacted who they became as an adult.
I firmly believe that a person should never forget where they came from, should always remember their roots, and should never get too important to acknowledge their heritage. While one may travel far and have many experiences in life, it is important to remember one’s roots, family, heritage, and values.
