This is the story of a Texas boy who becomes restless, and when barely of age, joins the army, which leads to his brutal experiences in Germany. From there he is sent to Vietnam to fight in America's most unpopular war, and in the process finds out what it really means to be a man in the world - according to the flesh. And that leads to a question involving the devil: how can a sinner repent if he does not know he is a sinner? Concerning the war, fighting communists was not a sin, but how some US soldiers lived in Vietnam was a sin. This fiction account is based on a nonfiction story penned by a Vietnam War veteran who did not finish high school, whose English was atrocious and who refused to reveal his true identity: his precious tale was delivered to Rhett, who is a Persian Gulf veteran and whose English is not much better. But God uses the weak things.
