my brother lives in norfolk, and i grew up in that area, and so i am familiar what you have done there and so i appreciate the time to talk to me. "the rock" is an interesting book in that i had no idea about corregidor or about the 503rd, and i was in the office of my editor and his grandfather was there, and we were looking for a topic for a book, and he is the one who mentioned it, and we thought that it would be a great topic. but i had no idea. the only familiarity that i had with rock force was that they have a mannequin in the military museum in fayetteville, and so it was more of a journey more than anything, and it is a really overlooked operation that doesn't get the fanfare that many of the other operations get, and so in the end, it is an amazing journey. i will walk you through some of the events and the characters that you will meet when you read "rock force" you will be more well versed in the battle than when i started. so first off, let's talk about corregidor, the island. it is little more than four miles in length and shaped like a rocky tadpole, and sits in the mout
