Born and raised in Arizona, Mike Krentz earned a classical degree in English from the University of San Francisco, a doctor of medicine degree from the Medical College of Wisconsin, and a master of public health degree from Johns Hopkins University. Following a civilian career as an emergency physician, Mike rededicated his professional life to serve America's Navy and Marine Corps heroes and their families, and to honor their sacrifices in defending our freedom and way of life. His last active duty assignment was as 7th Fleet Surgeon on board the flagship, USS BLUE RIDGE-the inspiration for the Flagship series. After retiring from the US Navy, Dr. Krentz continued his service as a consultant supporting the Navy and Marine Corps Public Health Center. Upon completion of that mission, he returned to his earliest life passion as a full-time writer. See less
