Robert Sidney Pace served as an American diplomat
with the U.S. Foreign Service over a thirty-year career.
Subsequently, he was chief staff executive for a small
nonprofit organization. He and his wife live in the
northern Virginia suburbs of Washington, D.C.
Throughout a lifetime of service to his country as a
diplomat and nonprofit executive, Robert Sidney Pace
continued his search for the truth about his mysterious
and heroic father: a young Marine Corps lieutenant of
World War II who had been killed at the battle of Iwo
Jima. From a brief glimpse of his father’s wartime letters
in his childhood years, the author explores the contrasting
worlds of his mother and father as they meet, marry
and separate amid the turmoil of wartime America.
His search leads him on through an exploration of the
often-dramatic histories of his two American families to
his final late-in-life encounter with the truth about the
man who was his father.
