Destined to Serve: From the Queen City to Daejeon and the Presidency of a Korean University

This book is the story of the path that John Edgar Endicott took that resulted in his presidency of Woosong, the Vice-Chancellorship of the English language business college, SolBridge, and ultimately the creation and naming of a college of liberal arts and social science after him: the Endicott College of International Studies at Woosong University. In short, this is the story of a Cold Warrior who experiences the dangers of total nuclear war from the Underground War Room in SAC Headquarters during the Cuban Missile Crisis and later, flying targeting missions during the early days of America's involvement in Vietnam. More importantly, Endicott's story and ultimate mission in life is the work he has done to the control and reduction of nuclear weapons and the development of regional peace through the internationalization of higher education in Northeast Asia. And he still believes the best thing he ever did in life was to marry his wife of 60 years, Mitsuyo, from Japan.
