I'll be with him and Gail over the next few days at the Western Writer symposium in Tombstone. My school actually gave me Professional leave to so I can use it in my AZ History classes. Mas is a rather active member here and on several other sites. I won't give them because he is most likely a member of some I don't know and I won't ever violate his trust.
But I've learned much from him, much of it cements lessons learned in the military as a Scout Plt Sgt. Which boils down to, never judge the courage of a person by how they look or talk but by how they do. If there was ever a person who personifies the'Code of the West' it is an Arab American named Masaad Ayoob.
