Charleston, SC, June 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Palmetto Publishing has released Boys Cry Too, a memoir by John Mark Clubb, written with Jacqueline Robotham. The book traces Clubb’s journey from a childhood marked by abuse in segregated Louisville, Kentucky, through a distinguished military career, and ultimately to the long process of confronting and healing from trauma carried for decades. Born on Labor Day to two teachers, Clubb grew up under the shadow of sexual abuse inflicted by his father and physical abuse by his mother, both of whom were devout Southern Baptists. At seventeen, he enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps to escape. The military offered structure, discipline, and a sense of belonging he had never known. He went on to graduate from Aviation Officer Candidate School, earn his wings as a Naval Aviator, and rise to the rank of Navy Commander.
