Mehr zum Buch

The narrative centers on the author's personal experiences as a paratrooper in South Vietnam, chronicled through letters he wrote to his family over four decades. These letters, preserved by his parents, reflect the harsh realities of military life under challenging conditions, complete with grammatical errors and misspellings. Accompanied by insights and anecdotes from his granddaughter, the book balances humor and seriousness, focusing on everyday life rather than graphic battle scenes. It begins in West Germany before transitioning to the author's deployment in Vietnam.
