Copernicus Paul was assigned to Strategic Air Command and later to the US Air Forces in Europe during the Cold War. A Southern California native, he holds a healthy measure of contempt toward those who deny true liberty and freedom to anyone, especially through means of fear or force. Copernicus is a cancer survivor and lives in gratitude for every day on this earth.

The Humane Society
From my earliest memories, my mother and father dedicated themselves to the care of those who needed it most, and this included the welfare of animals. We took home the ones with only three legs, or a missing tail, or who lived in a shelter for months with no one wanting them. We did.

American Cancer Society
The day I received my cancer diagnosis, two minutes of terror consumed my thoughts. I then proceeded in earnest to do everything I could to win the battle. I let nothing wait. I let nothing go unanswered. I knew then, and even more so now, that without the altruism of my medical team, and the ingenuity and inventiveness of those dedicated to cancer research, I would never have survived. I give thanks at the dawn of each new day.

Gary Sinise Foundation
I was young. I was naïve, both to the world and to the reality of war. It would be true that I thought war was something “over there,” which is how I ended up here. It is everywhere, and everyone who has served alongside me, before me, and after me is owed my debt of gratitude.
