| Vietnam: No Regrets is the story of a soldier who volunteers to fight for his country in Vietnam. He would have no idea of what he would have to go through to leave the killing fields of Vietnam alive. You will be able to follow him from his first step in-country until his very last day and see for yourself what life was like for the infantry soldier in Vietnam. This story is told through the eyes of one individual Vietnam combat soldier, but it is a compelling story that all veterans and non veterans alike will have no trouble relating to. |
Author: Jim Stewart A Touching Memoir by a Vietnam Veteran MP In The Ghosts of Vietnam, author Jim Stewart reminisces back on his life, which included 4 years in-country. It is not your normal combat action story but actually a warm and at times tender loving story of a young man seeking to find himself during the war and the years afterwards. It is about a journey and not just a diary of where he has been and what he has done. You get inside his heart, as well as his head. There is a touching scene from his experience as an MP in the Saigon area when he witnesses a little girl on a bike get killed by a truck. He never forgot that little girl, nor the image of her lying on the ground with half her skull missing. It haunts him in the background of his heart; and in a strange twist of fate, that tragic scene gets played out again later in life when he seeks to find his own daughter whom he left behind in Vietnam. This book is both funny and sad. It is at times, spiritual as well as being very worldly but it is always entertaining. It reads very easily and for people who do not like typical war books, this is the one to read. This is not one of those blatant “I am a hero” with blood and gore stories. This book shows a different side of the war—the kind where crime, black markets and life behind the battle lines in Saigon and the cities are the focus. It is also about love and the loss of love. This is a story of a man who never really got to enjoy being a father to his daughter; a man who lost his youth many years ago in a far-a-way place that still dreams inside him at night. Yes, there are still ghosts of Vietnam within him but he is finally at peace. OUTSTANDING BOOK! TOP RATING FROM THE MWSA! 2005 Distinguished Honor Award! |
TOLL OF WAR/VIETNAM : INSIDE A VETERAN'S
MIND
Excellent Reading
| “Toll of War/Vietnam” is a first hand account of this soldier’s tour as an infantryman with B company of the 1st 327th infantry-101st Airborne Div. Screaming Eagles. The text is comprised of several short stories with contributions from other soldiers of the 101st and one from an ex-marine grunt in Vietnam. It is written in a humorous light whenever possible though dealing with the harsh realities of day to day life as an infantryman in a jungle war |
