The Mysterious Benjamin Smith is written using my fathers journals, scraps of paper, written that small the third eye was called for. I inherited his worldly goods on his demise from this mortal coil, and ventured to a new life in the great Navy shipyard in the sky.The magnifying glass was found, I started to read the intriguing stories. His book of discharge started in the mid 20s, on to 1941 during the second world war,stopped and started again in 1944. My mission was to try and find out what happened during those missing years. I had to see friends in France. When I was a lad that didn't mean much to me, but I did meet some of those friends from France, and still have the photos taken in the garden to prove it. I had to find out. The mystery was it all true, or written by a Navy Officer in his free moments. This story unfolded, I had to find out.
