His active duty during the Viet Nam War, and early military assignments on the manned Orbiting Laboratory and the design phase of the F-15 Eagle fighter aircraft provided insights into the workings of the military and developed a keen interest in military history. These experiences served as a unique foundation for this novel as well as a previous companion novel, Honor & Innocence, Against the Tides of War.
After leaving the Air Force in 1974, Glen returned to his home state of Wisconsin where he joined the First Wisconsin National Bank of Milwaukee, and attended the Rutgers University School of Executive Bank Management. In 1979, he moved on to become President and CEO of MGIC Development Corporation, followed by several real estate development and management companies. Glen retired in 2009 to devote full time to his grandchildren and his writing. He resides with his wife, RuthAnn, in Bakersfield, California.view less
