Default This Vietnam Book
I asked this over on THC forum but got no reply. I have this book that a close friend found, it's called "Vietnam, Our Story- One on One". It was writen by Gary D. Gullickson, he was a Marine in Nam in 70 according to his book.

The book is a collection of some 50 or 60 personnel stories in letter form about individuals service in different branchs all of which lead to Vietnam and how they saw their time there. Gullickson compiled them in a book.

I had 2 questions, (really 3)
1. Have any of you heard of the book?.
2. If so what did you think of it, if you read it?.
3. On the back page it says "Purchasa will help all Veterans". I wondered if anyone knows how/, or does it mean just the vet they wrote it?. :cd:

me either...

and I was part of the process of researching book sites for hundreds oftitles selected by a history profto create the purchase order for the Vietnam War section of our university library but this particular book was not on the list. You guys can know there is a history prof in Oklahoma that hasn't forgot you.I have no idea why they selected me for the job.
