Dan Bozung is the author of This Civilian Sh*t Is Hard, the ridiculous story of his military-to-civilian transition odyssey, and Pajamas in Public and Other Crimes Against Humanity, a collection of essays on topics that confuse, amuse, annoy, and inspire him.
He grew up in Indiana and Michigan and enlisted in the Navy at age seventeen. He later became a Navy pilot and flew missions throughout the Western Pacific and Middle East in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. In the private sector, Bozung has served in roles ranging from unskilled construction laborer to vice president and general manager of a multinational manufacturing business.
He holds a Bachelor of Science from the U.S. Naval Academy and an MBA from Harvard. He lives with his family in Kansas City, Missouri.
“Look at that! You see that? You see Lieutenant Bozung? That guy’s going places. You know how I know? Just look at him. Any time, day or night, he looks like he just took a shower. Amazing.”
“Dan Bozung’s comments at Harvard were a unique combination of sharp, acerbic, and humble. I could listen to him all day. And now, with this book, I can! Top Gun meets Office Space in Dan’s wonderful memoir of post-military civilian life.”
