Life was pretty uneventful for 18 year old Dan Rasmussen, Jr. in 1940's Nebraska. Little did he know a phone call from California would soon change his life forever, starting him on a journey that would lead him from the peaceful Midwest to wartime Korea and back again. More than a by-the-numbers battle narrative, "Come Along and See" is the highly personal story of one young man's life in those times. At once a classic adventure, a war memoir and a coming-of-age tale, this true accounts offers an unblinking look at life in post-World War II America.

Returning form the war, Rasmussen proceeded to earn his associate degree in Radio and Television from the Milwaukee School of Engineering. Following college, Rasmussen worked for General Electric and Westinghouse at the Hartford Nuclear Complex in Washington state. Now retired, Rasmussen thought it was time to tell the story of the Korean War and explore the ideologies that helped to shape him and his memoir, "Come Along and See." Mr. Rasmussen's book coincides with the 50th Anniversary and the three-year remembrance of the Korean War.
