Summary:
"This book weaves together three biographies: (1) the author's autobiography; (2) short biographies of some of the men in his platoon who served with him in the Vietnam War; and (3) the biography of the platoon as a group, both during and after the war. The events in the book span three periods of time: pre-war, during the war, and post-war. Included is historical and biographical information about many of the platoon members before they became soldiers, their combat experiences in the Vietnam War; and their lives after the war. Also discussed are the post war effects upon the veterans' physical health and mental health (including post-traumatic stress), and the difficulties in reintergrating back into society after fighting in such an unpopular war. A key factor in healing is reuniting with combat comrades"--Page [4] of cover.
