About the Book
|
|
PFC Phil Ferrazano's
heartbreaking tale of courage and redemption happened not in the
jungles of Vietnam, but in the States twenty years after the war
ended.
In 1988, Phil Ferrazano's visit to the Vietnam Veteran's
Memorial to honor his comrades of the 9th Infantry Division triggered
a flood of repressed emotions and post-traumatic stress disorder
with devastating results. He would spend the next ten years confronting
his own anger, guilt and grief while battling the VA for the compensation
and recognition he deserved.
During his journey he'd endure uncaring doctors, inscrutable
rules, haphazard medical treatment, and shared the despair that
drove many of his fellow vets to suicide. Phil Ferrazano's
story is a testimony to the dauntless spirit and perseverance of
all of America's veterans.
