Overview

Please join us for a virtual program with Bill Brockett on his latest book, Follow the Yellow Line: A Soldier’s Journey From the Selective Service Induction Center to the White House Oval Office. The program will be moderated by Mike Ebbing. These two former members of the White House Communications Agency will take you through Bill’s incredible journey of a Vietnam-era Army draftee who became a trusted confidante of the President of the United States. Pre-signed copies of Follow the Yellow Line can be purchased through the registration process.

Assigned to the White House Communications Agency one month before President Richard Nixon's resignation, Bill is believed to be the only person, living or dead, to have physically attended all four major events at the White House on August 8-9, 1974: Nixon’s resignation speech, his farewell address to the White House Staff the following morning, the Nixons’ final South Lawn helicopter departure, and the swearing in of the new president, Gerald Ford.

The book and moderated conversation will cover these stories and many more.
