Everything comes full circle. As many of you already know, I once commanded USS HOUSTON, SSN-713. And HOUSTON is already a movie star, being featured in the Hunt for Red October. I took command just in time for the premier of that movie. A few days ago, the current CO of HOUSTON, CDR Scott McGinnis, contacted me. Seems that that Hunter-Killer, the movie based on my book Firing Point, has found HOUSTON. Gerard Butler, Donovan Marsh, and a couple of the producers are going to ride HOUSTON for a few days in early May. Scott is slated to be the Navy on set advisor for the production. Don’t know yet if the old girl will actually appear in the movie. That would bring everything full circle.
