Decades after the conflict ended, confusion clouds the Vietnam War, from the winner to the politics to global leadership and beyond. This comprehensive, single source of truth is here to set facts straight.
The Vietnam War remains one of American history's most hotly debated military involvements-and more than a half-century later, a profound misunderstanding seems to persist. Author T Starr, a decorated Vietnam veteran who held a Top Secret Crypto clearance, is here to inform the public with a meticulously researched and personally lived reference book on the Vietnam War, They Never Heard the Final Shot: After 50 Years - The Truth About Vietnam.
What first contributed to the confusion and disdain? From the author's perspective, erroneous media reports at the time, plus a political hierarchy that found it hard to commit to a policy, were two main factors contributing to a loathing among the American citizenry for the war-and the U.S. military members who were called to serve in it.
They Never Heard the Final Shot explains the engagement in a comprehensible way for every age group, regardless of military knowledge. The novel is intended as an educational work, but Starr somehow captures every conceivable emotion within its pages. Chock-full of information, sprinkled with accounts of kindness and moments of courage, and punctuated by a true ghost story, They Never Heard the Final Shot is the penultimate book regarding every aspect of the Vietnam War.
Starr sincerely hopes that readers who choose to pick up They Never Heard the Final Shot will gain an in-depth understanding of what transpired in the war and walk in the shoes of a Vietnam veteran. And, contrary to popular belief, the U.S. did not lose the Vietnam War.
