A Shadow at the Gate by Don Bloch
This is a book of adventure and travel. It is also a memoir, reflecting the author's love for the people and the land, but do not expect a sentimental reflection of years gone by. These stories connect us all as human beings.Blcoh expresses his deep wonder as a child, frustration with his studies at the seminary, and his deep longing for freedom. Freedom he receives during his rollicking free life as a hobo, and he flies through graphic descriptions of piloting jet airplanes. Finally Blcoh reaches an honest insight into what it's like to be a special agent/pilot for the Drug Enforcement Administration. Here is the first part of his story.
Bloch, Don: - The twelfth of eighteen children, Don Bloch was born near Albany, Minnesota, in 1942, and raised on a dairy farm. He studied to be a priest, became a hobo, served as a pilot instructor for the U.S. Air Force during the Vietnam War, and finally made a career with the Drug Enforcement Administration. He is a retired special agent/ pilot for the DEA. Don and his wife live out in the Avon Hills of central Stearns County in Minnesota.
