Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: World War II was nothing compared to The Battle of Waikiki. Author Tom Speaker takes readers through the sometimes excruciating, always hilarious ways an eighteen-year-old, sheltered, and somewhat spoiled boy almost single-handedly brings the U.S. Army to its knees, waving the white flag of surrender. But there is hope for our hero as he matures, falls in love, and suffers heartbreaks. Finally, his deep love for a beautiful native Hawaiian girl, Mercedes Mia, causes him to move from immaturity and selfishness to maturity and unselfish love. With her help, he turns to God and realizes that with God, nothing is impossible. In The Battle of Waikiki, follow Mike Teague as he stumbles through the necessities of the army and lives the adventures, sports, history, young love, and beauty of our fiftieth state.

Book excerpt: When you're in the military, you can always count on one thing . Stuff happens! And, unless you're actually in harm's way, the stuff that happens is typically zany, unexpected, and ultimately funny. I know that's the way it was for me. While there was the real Vietnam War a few thousand miles west, I was stationed on Oahu, and those two years provided me with a whole lot of Waikiki Beach-time and humorous story-telling material. I've been entertaining folks with my "war stories" ever since my discharge. So, c'mon, go fix yourself a mai-tai, relax, get ready to smile a little, and let me share 'em with you.
