On April 14, 1994, on a clear morning over northern Iraq's no-fly zone, two U.S. Air Force F-15 jets encountered two U.S. Army Black Hawk helicopters on a routine mission. Within ten minutes, the F-15s misidentified the helicopters and shot them down with fire-and-forget missiles. For three years, aircraft had patrolled these skies with a near-perfect safety record. Although the Black Hawk's downing was one of the worst air-to-air friendly fire incidents involving U.S. aircraft in military history, the Air Force would officially conclude the pilots had made a reasonable mistake. One victim was ebullient twenty-five-old intelligence officer Laura Piper, in love with life and with being an Air Force lieutenant. Movingly written by her mother, A Chain of Events is the story of Laura's final flight and the Air Force's mishandling of the subsequent investigation. It is a story of duty, patriotism, a mother's devotion to a daughter's memory, and her family's disappointment in a beloved institution.

In this book there is true nourishing food for the mind which will also affect your body and spirit.

Fragments of truth mixed with fragments of every day life. The result I trust will be an encouragement for some going through experiences they feel no one has gone through before, or can understand. My prayer is that Jesus will take these fragments and cause you to be refreshed and ENCOURAGED.

Three short fictional stories, but all of them reflect true life situations and the truth of the HOPE that faith in Jesus Christ can give, which a SURE FACT in this ever-changing world.

In our journey through life, there will be rivers to cross. Some of them will be shallow so that we will be able to wade across. Sometimes when the water is deeper, stepping stones will help to get us across and remain dry. I trust what I have written will be stepping stones to help you to cross a river you may be facing at this time.
