Darcy Guyant is a retired U.S. Coast Guard Commander, with 25 years of U.S. military service, having flown helicopters for both the U.S. Army and the U.S. Coast Guard. The stories in this book series, "The Coast Guard Adventures of Dolph and Gwen", are based on actual search and rescue missions flown by Darcy in a HH-65 Dolphin helicopter. Since 2013, "Mr. Darcy", as students know him, has volunteered 1000s of hours in public elementary schools in his local community. Amongst his favorite activities at school are reading exciting stories to kids and helping them to learn to read on their own. Darcy's love of storytelling, and his own exciting flight experiences, have been a major source of inspiration for educating children about courage in the face of adversity, team work and trusting your team mates.Author's website is: www.DarcyGuyant.com
