Texas South Plains War Stories: Interviews with Veterans from World War II to Afghanistan - Paperback

by Larry A. Williams (Author), Katherine McLamore (Author)

Every veteran has a story to tell--often ones they have not told their own families. But as one vet in this collection of original interviews succinctly said of his combat experiences: Some things are better left unsaid. Documenting recollections from survivors of World War II, Korea, Vietnam and other conflicts--all residents of the Texas Panhandle--this book presents narratives from men and women whose young lives, for good or ill, were defined by their participation in warfare in service to their country.
