Sample Book Insights:

#1 The Colonel, the owner of Doc Fiddler’s, was a great military historian and patriot. He had become unhappy with the news reports about the war, and he organized a parade up Sherman Avenue to raise awareness of the soldiers who were being sent to Vietnam.

#2 Inwood had already buried 28 brothers, cousins, and friends who had been killed in Vietnam by late 1967. People from the whole neighborhood would attend the funeral, whether they knew the boy or not.

#3 The soldiers we were losing were young kids, like Tommy Minogue, who had signed up at seventeen or eighteen. The marines, which I’d joined at seventeen, considered me old at twenty-six.

#4 I wanted to do something to help the soldiers, so I decided to go to Vietnam and bring them beer. I had the right identification papers to slip into Vietnam as a civilian.
