Will Dabbs is a professional writer and practicing physician.
A native of the Mississippi Delta, Will is a mechanical engineer who flew UH1H, OH58A/C, CH47D and AH1S aircraft operationally as an Army Aviator. He is a SCUBA-qualified, instrument-rated commercial pilot who has parachuted out of perfectly good airplanes at 3 o’clock in the morning.
As commander of the US Army’s High Altitude Rescue Team, Will summited Mount McKinley, Alaska, six times…always at the controls of an Army helicopter, which is the only way sensible folk climb mountains.
After eight years in the Regular Army, Major Dabbs left the military for medical school. He has delivered sixty babies and occasionally wrung human blood out of his socks. Will currently works in his own urgent care clinic and shares a business building precision rifles and sound suppressors. He has written for the gun press since 1989.
Will is married to his high school sweetheart, has three awesome adult children and teaches Sunday School. Turn-ons include vintage German machine guns, flying his sexy-cool RV6A airplane, Count Chocula cereal and the movie Aliens.
