Happy Birthday Nelson DeMille

I would like to wish author Nelson DeMille a happy birthday today. Nelson DeMille was born in New York City and raised in Long Island. He was a First Lieutenant in the United States Army and was decorated with the Air Medal, Bronze Star and the Vietnamese Cross of Gallantry. Since then he has published more than twenty novels including The General's Daughter, By the Rivers of Babylon, and Plum Island. DeMille is a member of Mensa, The Author's Guild and the Mystery Writer's of America. His newest novel, The Lion, is scheduled for publication in June 2010.
