{"product_id":"letters-medals-roses-marjorie-a-brockman-9781412093033","title":"Letters, Medals, Roses","description":"This book of poetry was written as a result of many hours of conversations with Vietnam veterans at the Chicago Welcome Home Parade on June 13, 1986, and at several Vietnam veterans' reunions held in Crawfordsville and Kokomo, Indiana over the last several years. For the reader who is not a veteran, I hope that these poems will give you a better understanding of the problems these veterans faced in the past and are still facing today. For the veteran who reads this book, I hope that my poems will somehow help you as you try to heal the emotional and physical scars caused by this war.. \u003cp\u003e The following is an overview of the collections of poems in this book related to the Vietnam War. \u003ci\u003eThese Memories Will Last\u003c\/i\u003e is a poem that describes how a solder felt on his way to Vietnam, his fears, his thoughts, his experiences and the impact they would have on his life in the future. \u003ci\u003eAll That I Can Give\u003c\/i\u003e is a poem about the nurses in Vietnam and their dedication to nursing the many wounded soldiers in Vietnam. \u003ci\u003eMissing You\u003c\/i\u003e is a poem about a boy whose father was killed in Vietnam before his birth.
