Charles Torres Confessions of a Drunken Sailor

Annotation

Charles TorresStricken by poverty in a small southern town, with little alternatives for college, the navy was a way out. An avenue to advance himself, would his experiences teach him about life, pride and perseverance while forging life-long friendships? Would Charlie realize the value of the American Dream as he and his shipmates explore the ports of Asia. His experiences take the reader into the debaucheries' night clubs of Subic Bay Philippines and to the bar brawls of Hong Kong, to the cold base towns of South Korea and the bright lights of Tokyo Japan as he learns the meaning of the true American Dream. Permission is granted to come aboard the USS Proteus fleet support ship of the navy's 7th fleet. Become a shipmate and explore these exotic ports: Subic Bay Philippines, Korea, Hong Kong and Japan!
