The author is a retired US Navy Rear Admiral and current President and CEO of the Naval Aviation Museum Foundation. Bound in the original black laminated boards, lettered in bright white, and with a full color photo on the front cover of the author hugging his mother, and with a quotation from Charles Krauthammer on the back. From the publisher of the 2022 edition: "Why me? This is what most people would wonder when suddenly faced with a life-altering hardship. Rear Admiral Kyle Cozad was no different -- at first. However, only days after a freak accident that left him largely paralyzed from the waist down, he chose to view his circumstances with unfailing optimism. That positive attitude, combined with his sheer grit and resilience, helped him do what his neurosurgeon said would be impossible: walk again. In RELENTLESS POSITIVITY Cozad chronicles his career in naval aviation, reflecting on his roles as the Navy's senior leader in the White House Situation Room during the Osama Bin Laden raid and as the commander of the Joint Task Force in Guantanamo Bay. He even relates his experience as commander of the Naval Education and Training Command when the training center suffered a terrorist attack. Then, Cozad recounts how his whole life was turned upside-down when an accident seriously damaged his spinal cord. With raw vulnerability, he describes his incredible journey of recovery and rehabilitation, focusing on the key factors that helped him along the way: his family, the U.S. Navy, and the sense of purpose he developed after his injury. Whether you have experienced a life-altering injury of your own or are simply looking for the inspiration needed to overcome a seemingly insurmountable challenge, regardless of your profession or place in your life, this book is a must-read. As Rear Admiral Kyle Cozad says, 'Life throws each one of us curveballs that we never, ever expect. It's how we adjust ourselves to overcome those curveballs that really defines who we are as individuals.'". INSCRIBED to his MOTHER. True First Edition. Hardcover.
