About this item
Product details
Throughout the dozens of interviews in this book with veterans of four wars, veterans who have experienced combat, there seems to be a consistent thread that goes through the veterans' words about wars, politics, weapons, biases, and human life. The words go, "War does not end war, it begets war," "Stronger weapons may hinder but do not stop war." "Individuals, in spite of their gender, color, or culture have become more equal in the military due to their courage, bravery, and proof of equal abilities." Humans will go forth to protect their beliefs, their homes and their country when they believe it is a justified cause, and are willing to risk life and limb. There are three things that stayed the same throughout all the interviews. One: Wars are usually concocted by politics, greed, money and power and that these are the root of most wars. Two: The young, even before their brain is totally developed, are the ones who do the dying. Three: Although the military was ready to desegregate around 1947 the country still continued with the Jim Crow laws and the Green Book Travel Guide until sometime in the sixties. My question to you is, our young joined or were drafted, and they went to war, stayed the course, did the job, paid the price, and paid it forward. Could we at least pay it back? Could we at least know who they were and are? These are the people we are speaking about when we say "boots on the ground."

5 out of 5 stars review
According to those that were there!!
The author has given a voice to the Heroes that fought our wars. They tell their stories about what war was and is like. You will also learn what life was like before, during, and after each war for our country as well as our heroes. Each story is intense! The questions asked and answered of each hero at the end of each story is so telling. You will find it hard to put the book down. They tell the stories because they fought the wars. Because they fought the wars we should listen to them!!
