About this listen

A decorated fighter pilot and PGA professional tells the story of his life and service - to both his nation and others - in this remarkable memoir that is a stirring record of faith, patriotism, family, philanthropy, and golf.

What does it mean to be a patriot? For Oklahoma native Dan Rooney, it is someone who not only puts his life on the line for country, but who opens his heart and mind and seeks to build a life that embodies the purest and most concentrated essence of himself. For many, Rooney is the model of a patriot: as an Air Force pilot who deployed to Iraq, serving three tours of duty; as a professional golfer who established a nonprofit foundation awarding thousands of scholarships to the children of fallen and disabled veterans; as the father of five daughters; as a man of faith, whose copilot, both in the skies and on the ground, has always been God.

A Patriot’s Calling is his autobiographical journey through some of the most character-defining moments of his awe-inducing life and career. "On my third tour of duty in Iraq as F-16 fighter pilot, I felt a powerful calling from God to share the miraculous fusion of people and experiences uniquely placed along my journey. During my reflection, I began to understand how the forces of synchronicity had shaped my life. Synchronicity, or, as I like to call it, 'chance with a purpose,' is all around us. These encounters with God’s messengers are the sign-posts along the road of life guiding us toward our essence." A Patriot’s Calling illuminates Rooney’s true essence - and offers guidance and inspiration for us all.

While there are the occasional story's from in the cockpit, this book is more about American values patriotism, religion and unfotunatly golf.

Well written and narrated but not what I was expecting.

Disappointing and not really for avation fans.
