I liked his quote "I have come to a conclusion about my country that I knew then in my bones but lacked the courage to act on: America is good enough to die for even when she is wrong".

An old article, but still good words from the son of "The Great Santini".

Pat Conroy is an interesting person and writer. His book, "My Losing Season" is a great read about his time at The Citadel. He shares stories of the real Great Santini. Great story, great writer. Glad he faced his demons.
