Meet the Author: In-Person Book Signing. "Never Too Old For War" by Robert J. Shano. Scappoose Public Library, June 1st, 2024 (Saturday), 11 AM to 1 PM. Mr. Shano will be donating all the proceeds from the sales of his book that day to the nonprofit voluneer group Friends of the Scappoose Library. This book tells the incredible true story about Vietnam-era veteran Bob Shano who, shortly after the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, and at age 50, rejoins the US Army as an Infantryman after a 16-year break in service and goes on to complete three combat tours — two in Iraq and one in Afghanistan — before being mandatorily retired at age 62. His tell-all memoir has been called a "must-read" for anyone interested in a "brutally honest chronicle" of military history and an authentic first-hand account of America's Global War on Terror. Available for sale from Powell's Books at their online bookstore. For more details, call the event coordinator Jeff Weiss at (503) 543-7123.
