“I have accepted my PTSD.”
My tour of duty in Vietnam started in February 1969 and ended after 11 months and 20 days. I returned home in February 1970 as a Lance Corporal of the U.S. Marines. My family and friends do not know exactly what I endured while in Vietnam but those memories are in my head. So many of these faded fragments come and go yet other events I can recall moment by moment, detail by detail. I endured hardships yet I served my country well. In order for me to forge ahead, I need to write down my thoughts. I write this book so that I may voice my feelings and see my life on paper. Living as a veteran with PTSD is difficult. Having served as a U. S. Marine has been a life of honor. Perhaps the most difficult part of moving ahead is dealing with the deaths that I saw in the battles in Vietnam. Those memories have remained engraved in my head. The battles that I fought are penned in this book. These are not the only encounters with the enemy that I had but these are the events that I am constantly reminded of when my PTSD consumes me.
