Some became war heroes intentional or not but most of us were just trying to survive. As we all knew Vietnam was all about luck good or bad. And there were hundreds of different wars depending on where you were the year you were there your service branch unit rank job and race. Whether we were truck drivers helicopter pilots infantryman clerk typists medics engineers MPs sailors out on Yankee station artillerymen or cooks from 1956 to 1976 from the Delta to the DMZ these stories tell who we were the jobs we did our memories of that time and place how it changed us and what we did after we came home.

Unfortunately what little our kids and grandkids know of the war comes from books that only focus on one soldier one unit and one year or movies like Oliver Stones Platoon and Hamburger Hill leaving people to think that all we did was crawl through the jungle on the Cambodian border smoking dope. But that wasnt how most of us spent our year. Hopefully these books will help correct that narrative.
