About the

|
Why Didn’t You Have To Go To Vietnam,
Daddy? It’s a question children have
been asking since the 1960’s. Only a
true Vietnam War veteran could
write such a biting, satirical,
revealing look into the everyday lives
of soldiers within Vietnam. In the
tradition of MASH and Catch
22, Why Didn’t You Have To Go To
Vietnam, Daddy? is brutally honest
about the widespread drug use among
GI's, and a new insight into the antiwar
feelings of many in the US Army. It’s a
snapshot of America in the late 1960's,
the time of the military draft that
singled out those sent to Vietnam, and
those left behind. It’s not like any
other book you may have ever read about
the Vietnam era, including the cruel
twists of fate that awaited many
returning veterans. The book is part
anti-war novel, part history book, and
part biography of the counter-culture
from the Vietnam Generation. Why
Didn’t You Have To Go To Vietnam, Daddy?
is a must-read for all who lived during
those tumultuous times, and anyone who
wants a better understanding of the
Vietnam War's legacy among the baby
boomer generation.
