Colonel James H. Kasler attends book signings
On March 23, 2005, the authors joined Colonel Kasler for the first book signing of "Tempered Steel" at Barnes & Noble in Bourbonnais, IL near the Kaslers' hometown. It was very successful, selling 142 books!

Colonel Kasler was very relieved when he signed the last book. He, Perry, and Chuck had signed 500 books for the book signing and future sales!

Perry bought a special pen for signing the books. He wanted a larger pen so his hand wouldn't tire as easily and an ink cartridge that flowed smoothly!

In January 2006, the Library of Congress invited Colonel Kasler and the authors to a book signing event. Colonel Kasler spoke, audience members asked questions, and more books were signed.
What was my job on these two fantastic trips? At Martha's request, I looked after Colonel Kasler and took lots of photos!
