Drawing on the authors military service and deployments abroad into war zones, the book offers short stories with a twist of questioning what you you do in a similar scenario. This is to aid in decision making and also makes you ponder some of the moral questions in life and war. An interesting book that will appeal to many but especially in an educational setting.

The VVA Veteran

Comprehensive analysis of women’s role in the social movements of the 1960s and 1970s, including the struggle for Civil Rights and against the Vietnam War, leading to “A Movement of One’s Own” to achieve inclusion in society as full citizens. Presenting a diverse range of experiences and perspectives, building on the heroic heritage of women from years past, and introducing us to reformers and innovators whose names may not be well known, but whose activism and actions affected the world in which we live today. Told with a historian’s clear gaze, the transformational changes achieved by this generation are compared to retrenchment in our own time, from liberal progress back to radical conservatism.
