My first book, “Born from War: A Soldier’s Quest to Understand Vietnam, Iraq, and the Generational Impact of Conflict,” is now available for pre-order through Amazon or direct from Casemate Publishers. It is scheduled to be released in April 2025.
It compares my father’s time in Vietnam with the 82nd Airborne and advising the South Vietnamese Army, to my experience through GWOT and Iraq. Decades of history and politics divide our service yet the similarities between our experiences are undeniably striking.
The result is an engaging and eye-opening weaving together of the combat experiences of two generations of soldiers. From the failure of grand stratagem, through personal combat stories, the memories of those lost, and the various social challenges facing the military today—America’s wars against communism and terror are laid raw through the experiences of one family.
