This is the story of two brothers who served in Vietnam at the same time, yet their experiences were vastly different, one in a support function and the other fighting in the jungle.
Jim McGarrah
"Jim McGarrah's The End of An Era is an insightful, heartbreaking and, at times, hilarious account of his struggles as a veteran in the aftermath of the Vietnam War. In his extraordinary wounding, healing blues song, this combat veteran sings for family, for lovers, for friends, and, always, in each line, for the soldiers gone in another era and the ones now dying in our own."--Amazon
Nathan Sassaman with Joe Layden
The self serving and badly slanted excuses presented by the sort of military bureaucrat that had been a burden to armies throughout history. Take the authors claims of personal and professional greatness with a pound of salt. However, his descriptions of Iraq are clear and well written.
William (Bill) Richardson with Kevin Maurer
From the devastating counterattack at Unsan to the thirty-four months he spent in captivity-a period of years in which giving up surely meant dying-Col. Bill Richardson's instinct for leadership and stubborn will to survive saw him through one valley of death after the next. Valleys of Death is a stirring story of survival and determination that offers a fascinating, intimate look at the soldiers who fought America's first battle of the Cold War in the unvarnished words of one of their own.
Paxton Davis
A biography of T. E. Lawrence based on the premise that the contradictory aspects of his life could be reconciled by his "lifelong determination to live out the ideals of chivalry."
