World War II Medic Wants Americans To BACK-OUR-VETS
Proceeds From Patriotic Page-Turner Benefit Veterans and Military Families
HOUSTON, Nov. 25, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- World War II veteran Earl Littman wants to raise $1billion annually for veterans and their families. In his first book, The Wizard of Common Cents, he shares his insights and experience over the past 87 years, his often outspoken hopes for future generations and outlines what Americans can do today to make a difference. By giving the proceeds from book sales to his own 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization, BACK-OUR-VETS, Littman wants to start a grassroots movement: this video further details Earl's mission.
"Every American has the potential to make a difference. I want everyone, especially Congress, to stop the nonsense and bickering and get to work. This book is meant to start a discussion to get people talking about compromise and solutions, but most importantly to help those who served our country," said Mr. Littman, who served as a Navy medic in the Pacific theater.
"The military experience touches everyone in this country somehow. We need to help our struggling veterans and we need to do it now," said Mr. Littman. In a recent interview, he outlines his plans to call the country to arms in this clip from CW39.
Although the book has some harsh words and opinions addressing the American people it also has a softer side. Littman writes about his 65-year marriage to the love of his life and his career as one of the founders of the oldest and largest advertising agency in Houston, Goodwin, Dannenbaum, Littman & Wingfield. "This book could be considered a memoir or even a love story, but at the end of the day it's really about waking people up, getting them talking about important issues, about helping your neighbor in hard times. It's the story of America, what made it great, and how we can be great again," said Mr. Littman.
