Lighter Side of the Vietnam War Featured in Xlibris Book

August 11, 2007 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
Most written materials that delve into wars are usually dark and serious in tone. However, this is not the case with the Xlibris book, Vietnam: Sometimes It was Funny, by Vietnam veteran, Roger W. Williams.

Vietnam: Sometimes It was Funny presents a light-hearted take on the Vietnam War, as experienced by its author. Williams operated an army tank for a year during his tour of duty in Indochina, and his adventures (and misadventures) are well-chronicled in the book.

Several memorable experiences to be read in Vietnam: Sometimes It was Funny include Williams’ face-off with an orange spider while driving his tank through the jungles of Vietnam, learning to cook using explosives, and getting his tank dreadfully stuck in a mud bog. Even Williams’ assignment to his battalion becomes a light-hearted moment – as only Williams can relate it.

If one is used to horror stories on the Vietnam War, then Vietnam: Sometimes It was Funny is sure to bring out a different – and funnier – face of the war that America is too timid to talk about..
