Publisher's Synopsis
It was the height of the women's movement in the 1970's, and the scaling down of the Vietnam War.
Shane McGarrett, at seventeen, joined the USAF and became the first woman certified jet engine mechanic at March AFB, if not the whole USAF.
Before long, her life suddenly became a series of challenges and compromises as she faced the insurmountable adversity of being a woman in a mans world; the jet engine shop.
Shane's coming of age turns bittersweet when she reunites with a woman that would change her life forever.
She quickly learned the true essence of being a jet engine mechanic, what military protocol really was, and what trust, fairness and friendship could be from the women on the third floor.
Shortly, after settling into her everyday routine, her world once again, was literally turned upside-down.
Being hand-cuffed, arrested, and taken to the north end of the base where nobody ever went, the story takes a turn, as a group of women, underground work around the clock to help save Shane's life.
Out of Service is a riveting story that will touch your every emotion. It's a true story that needs to be told...and heard.
