Voices From Vietnam
Interviews, Letters, Vignettes, and Reflections, 1964-1982
About this book
Voices From Vietnam began as a stage play but, due to the overwhelming number of contributors, is now published in this companion book. Both the play and the book are a collaborative effort between Major Bruce H. “Doc” Norton, USMC (Ret), a decorated Vietnam War veteran, author, and former oral historian for the Marine Corps, and Dr. Harry Kantrovich, a retired Chief of Naval Operations Command Master Chief, playwright, and award-winning director. From the front lines of battle to the school rooms and living rooms of our hometowns, Voices From Vietnam is a collection of letters, vignettes, reflections, and memories from Vietnam Veterans, former prisoners of war, families of servicemen who were missing in action, and the home front based upon interviews conducted by the authors.
