Overview

In Richard Taus' biography, it is evident that from an early age, Richard Taus knew he wanted to be a hero, a real American hero. However, he never imagined that he would be his son's hero. In Elliott's article, Richard says of his son: He was almost four then and on the orphanage's 'death list.' He weighed 20 pounds, boils covered his body, and he was coughing up blood. Richard had saved David's life. Covering a dramatic period in American History, this boyhood memoir is the story about Richard in his earliest experiences, from childhood to adulthood. This story concerns the experiences and influences, both positive and negative, that shaped his life and the lives of others during a turbulent period in the Twentieth Century. To Be A Hero is about an American family, reflecting what so many families had to endure while serving this great nation in wartime and in peacetime. It tells of the sufferings all endured as a consequence of circumstances and mistaken, if not prideful, decisions made by the American government. This story should surely ring true to many Americans whose lives were affected by manmade disasters and tragic accidents. The Richard Taus Story Part One is the prequel to The Richard Taus Story Part Two, An American Hero: Stolen Honor, which tells the true story of corruption and CIA/FBI intrigue. Has whistle-blower Richard Taus been railroaded? Has this decorated army officer and FBI agent been a casualty of FBI and CIA intrigue? Many believe this to be the case for Taus who questioned unlawful Intelligence agencies' operations. Investigate the life of this man who is serving what amounts to a life sentence and decide for yourself. Keywords - Taus, Adoption, Tet Offensive, Military, Vietnam, Hero, FBI, CIA, Whistle-Blower
