About this listen

In Grandpa's Adventures in the US Navy: Soul Searching on the Way to Mars, Jerry Werner shares his inspiring journey from rural Wisconsin to the dream of becoming an astronaut.

Starting in 1961, a young Jerry gazes at the stars, captivated by the cosmos, and sets his sights on space exploration despite the odds stacked against him. Lacking connections and facing skepticism, Jerry draws strength from his upbringing, his family, and his own determination. Along the way, he reflects on the values instilled in him by his parents and his rural community, grounding his ambitions in hard work, perseverance, and a deep belief in himself.

This memoir, narrated by Mark Armstrong, is a heartfelt story of chasing big dreams, overcoming obstacles, and the power of family and self-belief.
