Voices From Vietnam: Stories of War (The Vietnam War)

It was a time of confusion, militancy, and doubt.During the Vietnam War, approximately 2,700,000 American men and women answered their nation's call to service in Vietnam. The men who joined the Army, Navy, Marines, and Air Force flew over enemy territory, investigated tunnels with explosives, performed search and destroy missions, conducted naval duties, operated military equipment, and provided medical aid for the wounded. They persevered, despite violent naysayers back home who belittled their efforts and failed to welcome them home. Perhaps worse, the men discovered that while in service to their country, they were exposed to deadly substances that would affect their lives in numerous ways. Kayleen Reusser, author of books on American military history, has interviewed men who, while not always understanding what they were fighting for in Vietnam, honored their country during a time recognized as one of America's most tumultuous periods.
