Cold War Soldier: A History of Early Alaska and Early Anchorage

From the back cover: ".....this is an absolutely fascinating collection of historical gems and salty recollections that take a reader from Staser's birth in Anchorage's old railroad hospital in 1919 to his days at West Point, to his active duty service in three wars, to his selection by former Gov. Bill Egan as Alaska's adjutant general; and to his retirement days......Stauser was a paratrooper and a good one -- making four jumps in Europe and WW II, including one behind German lines -- but he's one who admits he never actually saw a minute of real combat...... Book contains numerous black and white photos making it a true collector's item for those who treasure Alaska's past.
