Description
This book is about my 12-month tour in the Vietnam War during 1969-1970. The book begins with my decision to enlist in the U.S. Army after college and covers events during my tour and eventual homecoming. Highlights include a number of close calls, a major battle, and some of the human consequences of war. Humor appears where appropriate. The draft manuscript has 22 chapters with a prologue and epilog. Only recently have I realized how much this war experience influenced the remainder of my life which is why I decided to write the book.

A Supply Sergeant's Viet Nam ExperienceMemoirs of vets who served in Viet Nam should be mandatory reading by all students so they can learn and understand what it was like for those veterans. These memoirs brings history to real life episodes for the reader and is much more interesting than reading standard histories. This memoir is no different. This one is by a supply sergeant, which provides a different perspective from that of the combat soldier, Marine, and Special Forces.
