This is the story of survival during the 1950’s and the 1960’s for a black African American male youth during this period. My primary education was achieved through the American public educational and private educational system in the United States of America. Through my background in receiving a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Sociology, I’ve lived among whites and blacks who experienced the Vietnam War. You can only imagine the era of the Civil Rights Movement. You could only imagine what it was like to be an African American soldier during the Vietnam conflict.
This is a story that is being told through a black perspective and point of view. It is a story of truth. The American public has been cheated of not knowing that African American heroes were of notoriety from the Vietnam War. It’s the story of black male youth going into a war that was diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder in 1993. This story entertains, enlightens, and informs the public about a significant part of modern American History. Due to my minor in history and actually living through Vietnam, without a Purple Heart as a combat soldier who lost his virginity in Vietnam at nineteen years old, I am qualified to tell this story. In 1969 I received 3 Bronze Stars and 11 other combat ribbons for heroism in The Republic of Vietnam. In February of 1999, I was honored by the Senate of Maryland and the House of Delegates for Heroism with Resolution 0462 and Resolution 559 for Valor in defense of the Nation.показать меньше
