by Peter John McCann (Author)

A captivating expose of a National Serviceman's deployment to Vietnam. Brutally honest, this confronting memoir covers extensive military detail and personal revelation, so rarely told.

Serving in the Australian Army from 30 January 1969 until 29 January 1971, Peter McCann intimately shares his experiences as an infantryman undertaking recruit, corps, and operational training in Australia prior to deployment on active service and soldiering in Vietnam.


During that time, he served with 8 Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment (8 RAR) for 12 months in Vietnam from November 1969-November 1970. This fascinating story focuses extensively on that period of his life and reveals how military service forever changed him.
The substantial amount of technical and educative detail included is nothing short of astonishing, though it's also prudently interspersed with humour and pathos. Returning to civilian life in Australia, McCann also raises some of his strongly held views on several issues of continuing interest within many veteran networks and wider community frameworks operating in Australia today. Beyond a record of military history, McCann's compelling 'in your face' account is a public disclosure of the author's inner soul. He explains how he coped and dealt with a range of related subsequent personal issues that might well have utterly defeated many other veterans.
