Hope and Healing For All Who Have Been Touched by War
"Made in America, Sold in the Nam" brings together the writings
of more than two dozen Vietnam-era veterans who have never before
had the chance to speak their peace. Through diaries, essays, and
poems, each contributor brings a unique first-person perspective
that will be appreciated by veterans, their families, and
historians. Taken together, this book represents the conscience of
a nation: patriotic, duty-bound, and mired in a swamp of confusion
and pain.
New Second Edition includes material by the spouses, adult
children, and other survivors of the war. "Made in America, Sold in
the Nam" is Book #2 in the Reflections of History Series from
Modern History Press.
- For Viet Nam Vets: an opportunity to verify their experiences
against experiences of others leading to validation and perhaps
even an airing of their suspicions and fears about themselves. No
matter how long it has been, healing is possible.
- For Families of the KIA: peace and understanding about the
experiences of their loved one and if they have letters from their
loved ones, perhaps a way to fill in what could never be
spoken.
- For Adult Children and Spouses of Vets: empathy for their war
experience, in spite of whether or not there has been communication
about how it really went down.
- For Vets of Recent Conflicts: a shortcut to understanding the
overall experience of war and how one copes with its indelible
marks. Discover the commonality of those who have endured their
time as warriors.
- For Society and Generations to come:
. Learn what really happens during a modern military
conflict.
. A plea for wisdom in how we deal with other peoples on
Earth.
. A chance to break the cycle of doing the same things and hoping
for magically different outcomes.
"That there is conflict and confusion over how we are to view
the Viet Nam War and how we are to feel about those who sacrificed
for this effort, makes this book all the more important. These
pieces give the average person insight into what really happened to
those that served and what they thought that they were trying to
accomplish. There is some personal truth, buried emotion, and a few
heroes in their own right." -Tami Brady, TCM Reviews
