Pointman

This Is A Shorter Synopsis Of My 1999 Completed Autobiography Entitled Pointman. Pointman Is An Autobiography (1900-1991) Which Begins As A Fitting Reflection Of My Familiar Past In Thought Or In Reverie Upon An Impending Military Retirement. First Of All, It'S A Hard-Nosed Military Document With Profound Insights Which Seeks To Make Amends To All Those Who Came Before Me To Learn The Arts Of Being A Successful Warrior Of Any Eraat The Tip Of The Bayonet In Combat , The 'Point.' Next, It Is A Collection Of Family Stories And Personal Experiences (1900-69), Interwoven Snapshots Of Southern Colloquialisms In Flashback Mode (Real Time 1989-1991) Played Out In The Making Of 'Desert Shield And Storm,' In Reliving Actual Combat Actions In Vietnam To Complete A Warrior'S Cycle (1970-1971) In Ground Combat. Finally, It Is One Of Spiritual, Supernatural, And Surreal Expressions Of My Life And Times Up To Retirement Date (Oct 1991) Complete With Memorable Deaths Of The Fallen In War And In Peace (Mom And Dad, Etc.) As I Struggled To Make Sense Of 'All There Is' In And Outside Of Mecomplete With A Peculiar, Spiritual Memory As My Childhood'S Earliest Recollection. Some Have And Still Do Take Offense At This Type Of Work, But A Warrior Is A Warrior For Life! And To Say That Violence And Brutality Are Not Marketable Or In Seasonborn Of Truth, Realityis But A Lie Upon Its Face Short Changing 'Liberty And Justice For All.' The 'Fire Next Time' Is No Lie; It'S The Brutal Truth That Our Kind Will Bear!
