A woman's touch.

A young girl faces reality in a hospital setting. Romance blooms in the face of tragedy and she discovers the meaning of life and love and everything in between.

This short story is a fan fiction feature about the film series called "Topper". It later was the first sitcom on television in the early 1950s. The original film starred Cary Grant and Constance Bennett. There is only minimal sex in this story although the film was considered quite risque at the time due to the sexy clothing worn by Constance Bennett not unlike the early Tarzan films of the time.

Jack commits the cardinal sin of dozing off in the subway on the way home from a boring job in Brooklyn. He is on one of those ancient trains from yesteryear and wakes up on a no longer existent elevated track on the east side of Manhattan 150 years earlier. The Civil War is in full bloom and life is suddenly filled with danger all around.

Jack Kruger has been back in Brooklyn for some time now and he yearns to return to the past and witness those battles that he had studied for so many years in his military studies. The American Civil War was fresh in his memory, but now he was focused on the American Revolution and he wanted to begin in 1775 right at the beginning in order to follow the time line in a way that made it easy for him to understand Washington's strategy.

This third and final book of the trilogy is set in the European Theater of World War Two and it covered the period of 1939 to 1945. Our Time traveling hero is hard at work trying to smooth the rough edges of history without creating a conundrum and he is seeing the reality of history without any bias from opinionated so called experts of the period.

This story is a follow-up to the Trilogy of "Don't Sleep on the Subway" and we can follow our time traveling hero as he starts a new trip back this time to the period at the close of World War I when the Czechoslovakian Legion entered the war on the side of the Czar against the Germans and the Austrian Hungarians that were their devoted enemy. The war ends quickly with Russia's withdrawal and the Legion is now isolated thousands of kilometers away from home. This story is about their Saga.

This narrative was hidden in my files and not submitted on other sites. I thought it might have been on my Harry Lime account on SOL but not there either. It is a slightly different account of combat years 1968 - 1969. Hope some readers will find it interesting. I had a nice letter from a reader commenting how much had changed in this region and any change for the better is certainly welcome. Not really unusual when you consider Russia was our Ally in WWII and Germany and Japan were the enemy.
