From the Delta to the DMZ, come walk in their boots.áIf you were there, you understand. If you werenâÇÖt, grab a copy and you will, because theyâÇÖre like Doritos. Try a few and you wonâÇÖt be able to stop. 252 photographs and 4.7 Stars on over 437 customer reviews.The Vietnam War dominated my generation and affected so many lives in so many different ways. Some of us were drafted. Some enlisted. Some became war heroes, intentional or not, but most of us were just trying to survive. As we all knew, Vietnam was all about luck, good or bad. And there were hundreds of different wars depending on where you were, the year you were there, your service, branch, unit, rank, job, and race. Whether we were truck drivers, helicopter pilots, infantryman, clerk typists, medics, engineers, MPs, sailors out on Yankee station, artillerymen, or cooks, from 1956 to 1976 from the Delta to the DMZ, these stories tell who we were, the jobs we did, our memories of that time and place, how it changed us, and what we did after we came home.Some of us were drafted.

But that wasnâÇÖt how most of us spent our year. Hopefully, these books will help correct that narrative.William F Brown is the author of nine action adventure and suspense novels on Kindle, including the highly successful Bob Burke series, and Our Vietnam Wars, Volumes 1 thru 4, personal stories of the veterans who served there.
