The Boys of '67 : Charlie Company's War in Vietnam Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Across the nation in the spring of 1966, farm boys from the Midwest, surfers from California and city-slickers from Cleveland opened their mail to find greetings from Uncle Sam.

Some of these men, optimistic and looking to serve their country, joined Charlie Company and trained for service.

They deployed together, experiencing the camaraderie, fear, smell, pain, violence and senseless deaths. And through it all they wrote letters back and forth with the loved ones they’d left behind. Back at home, the families of Charlie Company faced fear, loneliness and uncertainty.

As the war came to a close, everyone had irrevocably changed.

Some families strove to set the war aside, while others wrestled with darkness as wives stood by their husbands through homelessness, alcoholism, and physical abuse.

Some couldn’t stand the pain and left the loves of their lives forever.

Some reclaimed their loved ones from the brink of oblivion.

Some had only memories to cherish. An emotionally raw and visceral journey through the tragedies, sorrows and triumphs of the Vietnam War and its aftermath, The Boys of '67 brings the experiences of the soldiers and families of Charlie Company vividly to life.
