Publisher's summary

This is a fictionalized version of my late father's World War Two memoirs. It begins in the twenty-fifth century when a mischievous young woman inadvertently travels back in time with her 'toys' of the future. This tale is included in the anthology "Willful Women II". My most memorable experience about this story occurred when an elderly gentleman at a book fair saw the photo my father had taken from a mountaintop of numerous wartime ships gathering in a South Pacific staging area for battle. He excitedly exclaimed, "That's my ship, the U.S.S. West Virginia is one of the ships in this photo!!" My dad served as a major in an army medical unit in the jungles of New Guinea. Memorable parts of the experience included his trip over on the luxury liner S. S. Lurline through a major storm with eighty foot waves, as well as encounters with cannibals who had never seen white men, sailing the yacht of the Prime Minister of Australia, and several sightings of General MacArthur. On one occasion, he had to cancel joining eighteen friends on a plane ride over the New Guinea interior due to performing an emergency appendectomy. The plane never returned, but was eventually found deep in the jungle in 1983 with the eighteen skeletons still on board. Another time he met an elderly-looking cannibal woman in her mid-thirties. She was considered by her tribe to be too old to be useful and was scheduled to be their meal that night. She seemed fine with it and smiled for a photo. The story begins in the future with a young woman traveling back into the past with several futuristic 'toys'. Please read the tale to find out what happens.
