But in Unrepentant Sinner I thought he made it REALLY clear that he had no liking for JO at all.

I have the book and Askins does make it clear that he did not like JO, but he didn't say exactly why, other than JO took Maj. Askins place at Outdoor Life. If it was Outdoor Life's decision, and they thought J. O'C could do a better job, then I don't see why the Col. should have held it against Jack.

But, if as reported on these threads, Jack did tell Outdoor Life that Keith and the Col. were writing Maj. Askins articles, them yes, I could understand why Col. Askin would hold a grudge.

I don't know that it happened that way, or that it didn't. I am going by information posted on these threads. I don't have first hand information, or facts.
