This is a brand new second edition paperback copy of RUCKSACK GRUNT , A Vietnam Veteran's Memoir. 
A great gift for your beloved veteran. You can find a lot of great Rucksack Grunt book reviews using any search engine.  Currently has 4.2 stars rating on Amazon and 4.3 stars on Goodreads. The events of this narrative take place from 1969 – 1972. The memoir details a naive teenage boy’s evolutionary journey  from his safe suburban neighborhood in Pennsylvania to the dangerous jungles and mountains of the Central Highlands  as well as into the coastal rice paddies of Vietnam during the latter years of the war.

Though, not a blood and guts war story, this first-hand emotional account reveals the many traumatic and sometimes disturbing encounters  of Robert Kuhn, the “rucksack carrying grunt” who served with the 1st Battalion 22nd Infantry unit during his Vietnam tour of duty.

Many Vietnam Veteran readers find that they appreciate discovering parts of the story that they can identify with and relate to  while remembering their own similar personal Vietnam tour of duty experiences!

Spouses, friends, and family members of Vietnam Veterans may also gain some insight into some of the experiences, thoughts,  and feelings that their Veteran doesn’t talk about, but lived through, during his or her struggles in Vietnam.
