Larry Laswell Releases Collection of Stories Inspired by Life at Sea

Indianapolis, IN, April 30, 2015 (Newswire.com) - In the Sea Stories volumes, Laswell tells the story of his navy career in a chronological fashion – stories he has shared with friends and family for many years, but has now decided to share with the rest of the world. Laswell served in the navy from 1967 to 1975, where he held various specialty technician roles, and later served as a CIC officer, electronic material officer and anti-submarine warfare officer. The collection of Laswell’s naval experiences, as told in his witty and amusing writing style, makes it an entertaining read for those currently enlisted, veterans, as well as those who would love a glimpse of what it’s like to serve in the navy.

 “I believe my navy career was unique,” said Laswell. “I was aboard ships doing some serious and dangerous stuff, and the ships I was on were at sea three to four times as much as the average navy ship. These life-changing experiences are etched into my memory, almost as if they are still in full color HD.”

"These life-changing experiences are etched into my memory, almost as if they are still in full color HD."
