A sacred mission. A daring journey. A story that honors the fallen while inspiring the living.When Congressman and Vietnam combat pilot Steve Pearce set out to fly solo around the world, it wasn't simply an adventure. It was a pilgrimage-a mission to honor the men and women who gave their lives in service to their country. In You Had a Good Home, But You Left..., Pearce weaves together the exhilaration of global aviation with the solemn responsibility of remembrance.From navigating the complexities of international skies to reflecting on the weight of freedom, Pearce's journey reveals more than the thrill of exploration. It is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit, the enduring bonds of brotherhood, and the sacred duty of carrying forward the legacies of those who never made it home.Part memoir, part travel narrative, and part meditation on service and sacrifice, this book invites readers into the cockpit for a front-row seat on a once-in-a-lifetime odyssey. Pearce's voice is both deeply personal and universally resonant-reminding us that true courage is not only in daring to fly across oceans and continents, but in daring to remember, reflect, and live with purpose.Whether you are drawn to aviation, adventure, military history, or stories of faith and legacy, You Had a Good Home, But You Left... will inspire you to consider what it means to live a life of service, gratitude, and meaning.
