About the Author

Fred Lane served in the United State Navy from 1963-1970, specializing in Damage Control and NBC Warfare aboard the world's first nuclear powered guided missile cruiser, the USS Long Beach CGN-9 and saw duty in the South China Sea during the Vietnam War. He is retired from the Department of Defense with experience in four disciplines: explosive, marine, transportation and industrial safety. Recognizing that official institutions and emergency preparedness authorities were not immediately addressing public training and homeland civil defense measures, Lane began working on The ABC'S of NBC Warfare Survival shortly after the terrorist attacks on 9/11/01.

A generalized public knowledge of the practices and procedures for surviving a nuclear, biological, and/or chemical attack is absolutely critical to combating and surviving any terrorist event that employs the use of weapons of mass destruction. The ABC's of NBC Warfare Survival addresses survival techniques in regard to all three categories. Written in concise, simple, and comprehensive language, his work eliminates the need for extensive research by the reader and condenses volumes of material on each subject into a bottom line, no frills text.

An avid sportsman, Mr. Lane's hobbies include deep sea fishing, sailing, downhill and cross-country skiing. In addition, he is a historical researcher, amateur genealogist and is currently working on a historical fiction about the life and times of his Revolutionary War era grandfather. Now residing in upstate NY, he is active in community affairs and is a Citizens Corps Councilman, advocate and volunteer. Realizing the importance of a unified and educated general population, he encourages all citizens to demonstrate patriotism through participation in any of the numerous volunteer programs now being offered in communities throughout America.
