Youth in Asia George Baggett

Readers will find an interesting story set in history, discussing issues relevant to today and for soldiers returning from a preemptive war in Iraq. D¿j¿ vu - our leaders use similar language; poor kids still fight our wars; society is polarized; and returning veterans will face similar reception. While others have told stories about the Vietnam experience, few have told how Vietnam veterans developed understanding of world complexities, dealt with disillusionment and loss of innocence, and then quietly arose to responsibility and respectability. In all groups there are extremists and troubled individuals, but most Vietnam veterans live normal and challenging lives and possess experience and knowledge that appears to be sorely needed at this moment in history. Youth In Asia is a good read
