(More customer reviews)Although not having served in Vietnam, I found the book's attention to details riveting and engrossing. While the "fragments" were short in length, they were packed with interesting and humorous accounts of people making the best of a difficult situation. Fragment 21 relates how disposing of captured weapons by the EOD unit turned into a hilarious prank for the pranksters but not the "victims." Fragment 15 about how the orphans of the war were treated with a little human kindness was especially moving. Once you read the entire book you'll want to go back and re-examine the Fragments in detail. An excellent read!

Have you ever been in a museum and viewed an old, broken piece of pottery that had lain in a tomb for centuries? Although it was assembled carefully, you could not help but notice that many fragments were missing. Nonetheless, its form was easily recognizable, despite the missing shards.These are my stories. Fragments from Vietnam, compiled after many decades of lying in the dust of the tomb called Vietnam. Not all the fragments are here. Some are still missing or lay buried over there...where they should be.
