Jd Gallant

JD Gallant has earned a living as a teacher, corporate trouble-shooter, and non-fiction writer. He has been an outspoken consumer advocate for the past 20 years working with RV Consumer Group in Washington State.

Although JD served in Europe, he was inspired to research the Korean, Vietnam, and Desert Storm wars primarily because of his brother Marty’s combat experiences in Korea, Panama, and Vietnam, and by watching friends return from Kuwait and Iraq. JD was very intrigued about the events soldiers go through, particularly after returning to civilian life where they have to endure the effects of Agent Orange, uranium poisoning, drug use, and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).

Originally from Maine, JD chose the Pacific Northwest as his home during the early 1980s with his wife Connie, and he has never left.
