A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur

Chuck Dean was one of the first three hundred paratroopers to be deployed to the Vietnam War in 1965. Since coming home he has worked with thousands of soldiers and veterans in the U.S. and across the globe—including Russia, Italy, and France helping them find positive solutions to the many difficult issues of returning home after combat duty. In the spring of 2004, Chuck was invited by the U.S. Army to assist the paratroopers of the 173d Airborne Brigade in their re-adjustment after combat in Iraq. His focus while at their re-deployment base camp in Vicenza, Italy was to help the troops reintegrate with their loved ones, and readjust to peacetime conditions after prolonged combat exposure in Northern Iraq. The 173d is the same unit Chuck served with as a young paratrooper in Vietnam. In 2008 he was the recipient of the Didi Hirsch Foundation Leadership Award for his writing and work to help veterans with readjustment issues. He lives in Las Vegas, Nevada, and is the author of several books on recovery issues, including best-selling “Nam Vet: Making Peace with Your Past” and “Down Range to Iraq and Back”. He is currently a columnist for The Vegas Voice Newspaper.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Although the Vietnam War officially ended in 1975, it still rages in the lives of thousands of Veterans and their families. Why do so many veterans suffer from flashbacks, depression, fits of rage, nightmares, emotional numbing, substance abuse, and helplessness? Author and Vietnam Veteran Chuck Dean endured years of agony and has some answers through those trials. In "Nam Vet", Chuck explains what causes these symptoms and gives guidance on to break free from self-destructive behaviors. Let the past be the past at last.
