War Stories: An Enlisted Marine In Vietnam
War Stories: An Enlisted Marine In Vietnam is a memoir of my two years in the United States Marine Corps. It tells what it was like to enlist in the Marine Corps and serve as a field radio operator with an infantry battalion. We operated near the southern edge of the DMZ in Vietnam in 1967, a time and place of intense fighting. It took forty years of writing and rewriting to distill that two years into this book, because it took that long for me to become this honest about my experience. If you want to know what it feels like to become a Marine, this book can help.
