Book synopsis: This is the story of a U.S. Army veteran who went to Hanoi forty years after returning home after serving in the Vietnam War.R. Lee Mahee was a full-time faculty member at a historically black university that offered classes in Hanoi to students from various countries-even Communist ones like Russia and China. When he was asked to teach an MBA course there, he agreed.But stepping off the airplane, he was apprehensive. His thoughts turned to the time he’d spent mostly with the 20th Combat Engineers in Pleiku, including his last thirty days in Vietnam, after most of his battalion was pulled out except for a small contingent left behind to support and advise an Army of the Republic of Vietnam unit.In this book of reflections, he looks back at what it was like meeting the citizens of Hanoi, who were the sons and daughters of his former enemy, what it meant being a black man serving in Vietnam, as well as how he felt about the other war going on at home-the fight for civil rights.Autobiography: R. Lee Mahee formerly was a senior manager at two Fortune 500 companies. He has an extensive background in business administration, strategic management, and information systems. He was awarded the Bronze Star medal for his meritorious service with the U.S. Army in Pleiku, Vietnam. He earned a Doctorate in Professional Studies in business from Pace University in New York City.
