Nine Paris of Boots in Vietnam is a sobering reminder of the internal damage often suffered by combat veterans and others with PTSD. In the author's words, "I've had a story to tell from the moment I stepped back onto American soil in 1970 after serving in Vietnam for a year, but it took 50 years for that story to find the right words, and for those words to find their voice. My time in Vietnam ended in 1970, but I carried my experiences home with me like a heavy backpack full of unprocessed emotion. The ugliness of war was strapped to my back, and I carried the burden with me, unable to put it down." The real life stories told by the authors, along with the "After Action Review" with nine steps to healing provide practical tools for veterans and family members dealing with PTSD and transitions from military to civilian life.

The Little Jeep Who Couldn't Beep

The Little Jeep Who Couldn't Beep was inspired by the M151A2 Army jeep that my veteran husband is restoring. I decided to give the jeep the name Marty M.U.T.T. as Army jeeps are actually referred to as a M.U.T.T., which stands for Military Utility Tactical Truck.Marty M.U.T.T. was once a mighty military jeep who carried soldiers around the country of Vietnam, but after all his hard work in the Army, he was banged up, dusty and broken. As happened with many other army jeeps, he was cut up and thrown aside to rust.Marty M.U.T.T. thought everyone had forgotten about him as he ended up alone in a cold, dark shed. He had tears coming from his headlights and was so sad that he couldn't even beep his horn!Find out what happens to Marty one ordinary day when someone rescued him.A delightful story of restoration that gives hope to young and old alike!The Little Jeep Who Couldn't Beep was inspired by the real-life story of Sgt. Stephen Williams who served in Vietnam in 1969-70.Note: Steve's memoir, Nine Pairs of Boots in Vietnam was published in November of 2020.
