Act Now! Go and see "Act of Valor"

I have to share exciting news about our friend, George Galdorisi, a 20-year Navy veteran, tactical aviator and author. His latest book is "Act of Valor," written "after" the movie was produced.

Here's a couple of links he shared with me: The book’s Facebook page has top-level information about the movie and the book and is tied into Relativity Media’s Facebook page about the movie Act of Valor, www.facebook.com/AVOBook.

Here's another link to Defense Media Network’s website that has the “story within the story” about how the movie came to be made and the book came to be written, Defense Media Network Website: http://www.defensemedianetwork.com/.

Enjoy with popcorn and go see the movie!

Welcome to Traveling Cynthia. As the first post on the first day of my blog let me share my latest foray into the travel world -Live Fit Magazine and Live Fit Films. Being part of this monthly show is great fun. So join us as we explore the Oscars from all aspects.
