Sobre IBD

Second Place Finish is a poignant and humorous real life story of coming of age in the fifties with all its changes and the quick trip out of the safety of a rural and sheltered lifestyle to a tour of duty in Vietnam. It is not just a Vietnam story, but one that includes that time. Doug’s approach to life is, 'Lighten up, wade in, cause the water’s fine!' 3
