Descriere magazin:
Ever since the American Revolution, military service has been a proud tradition for the
Zumwalt family. Tradition initially led the author to join his father and brother in the Navy, before later transferring to the US Marine Corps. During his 26 years in uniform, the author saw service in three conflicts-
Vietnam, Panama and the first Persian Gulf war. It was
Vietnam, however, that ultimately would launch him on an unexpected journey-long after the guns of that war had fallen silent-triggered by the loss of a brother who had fought there. This journey was an emotional one-initially of anger towards the Vietnamese and the conflict that claimed his older brother. But it unexpectedly took a change in direction. In
Vietnam almost two decades after Saigon\'s fall, the author, in a private talk with a former enemy general officer, came to understand an aspect of the war he never before had. In that talk, they shared personal insights about the war-discovering a common bond. It unlocked a door through which the author passed to start his own healing process. It began a journey where he would meet hundreds of North Vietnamese and Viet Cong veterans-listening to their personal stories of loss, sacrifice and hardship. It opened the author\'s eyes to how a technically inferior enemy, beaten down by superior US firepower, was able to get back up-driven by an iron will to emerge triumphant.
Bare Feet,
Iron Will takes the reader on a fascinating journey, providing stories-many never before told-as to how enemy ingenuity played a major role in the conflict, causing us not to see things that were there or to see things there that were not! It shares unique insights into the sacrifice and commitment that took place on the other side of Vietnam\'s battlefields. About the Author JAMES G. ZUMWALT Lieutenant Colonel
