    About this ebook

    “The Tug of War is profoundly evocative of scenes etched deeply with in my own memory and, I’m sure, the memories of all who served there. Despite the fact that Vietnam was many things to many people, as were so many different wars experienced by those who were in combat, your work seems to bridge all by its reality.”

     

    - Chaplain Ray W. Stubbe
