Chris Longo, a regular middle-aged man working at a dull state-run veteran agency, wants a fresh start. But how? And what? He finds it unexpectedly in a job that has him traveling the country helping veterans in need.
A story about regaining direction and purpose in life. And about perseverance while trying to get back on track. It's rich with interesting historical fiction, but overall, it's a story about the struggles and rewards with love that everyone can relate to.
Chris Longo served in the military for five years, but that was two decades ago. Today he's just a regular middle-aged man working at a dull state-run veteran agency. After feeling disillusioned that he's not making a real difference there, he decides to quit and seek a new start. Yet only months later, he's contacted by his old employer and the DoD. He is told his interaction with the veterans were of great value. He's asked to lead a national pilot program that would have him traveling around the country to counsel some veterans in dire need who have lost their way. His mission: help them find their path back. He accepts the job of "De facto Pathfinder"—the title he conjured up since the position didn't even have one yet. On his journey, Chris will meet some interesting people and see some beautiful country. But most importantly, he will discover these veterans' pain and struggles and how each has a gift. And that together, they may all find their path back.
