Viet Nam, 1970, this Autobiography of a Draftee is defined there and then. In the Opening Section his childhood stories carry the reader into the heart and soul of the author and toward a sort of forced hero role as a combat medic. The Asian tour includes 40 days in Cambodia during what was called The Incursion and permits the reader a unique glimpse into life with an Infantry Platoon and the damage war can inflict in many ways. The returning Veteran goes on to express many themes common to all Americans during his adult life in the Borough of Queens N.Y. Most every one of the chapters is a stand alone tale. Episodes of Series, as if a TV Show. The writing is terse, descriptive, and to the point. Brevity for today's reader.
