Senseless Wars and Conflicts

I am not an anti-war veteran, just a veteran against wars that are not necessary. Most wars are senseless wars. Afterall, who starts conflicts? Who benefits from wars being fought? The costs are high, both in human lives and in money spent. But one thing remains true. While poor men die in conflict, the rich elite thrive. This book is a collection of my Vietnam War memoirs from 1969 to 1970. It is also a reflection on wars the U.S. fought or has been involved in since World War II. After years in combat, you will never be able to unsee the horror of civilians and soldiers losing their lives. It does not matter how big the war is; if you are fighting for your life, it is life changing. Although we might defeat the enemy militarily, the countries we think we’ve helped always return to being what they were before the war.
