Dark Days for White Knights is the story of one Veteran's loss of
innocence and his sojourn down a lonely corridor...a chronicle of
his quest to recover something of what he lost in Vietnam. Combat
veterans of every war and from every nation have been scarred by
the atrocities of war. However, because of the rotation system
implemented during the Vietnam War, the veterans of Vietnam
straggled home, one by one, to be scattered across an increasingly
hostile America. America seemed as foreign as Vietnam had once
been, but these were no longer the boys who had dreamed of serving
America. The dreams of many had died in the soul-sucking mud of
fetid rice paddies. There are many novels about Vietnam, most of
which highlight heroic actions in combat. Heroes are a part of all
wars and their stories are exciting and important. Vietnam was no
exception. The devotion the warriors shared for one another spawned
many heroic actions...but perhaps the important lessons from
Vietnam were about personal responsibility, misplaced trust and the
ultimate cost of survival. In that light...Dark Days for White
Knights is a unique perspective on a still controversial time in
American history.
