'Weapons of War' is an amazing story of a young African American who was drafted, trained as a combat soldier, and deployed to the Republic of South Vietnam. Assigned to the 101st Airborne Division (Alpha Co. 2/506 3rd Platoon), he soon discovered that the North Vietnamese Regulars, the Viet Cong Guerrillas, and the environmental conditions were not his only adversaries in this faraway war. Written from the soldier’s actual letters sent home to his fiancée, the author offers readers a fascinating account of his service in the United States Army and how he survived the enemies of war--danger, despair, temptation, fear, and doubt-- armed with his training, his M-16 rifle, his writings (pen, paper, and pictures) and his faith. Written in a captivating writing style, 'you', the reader will be drawn physically and emotionally into every moment of each letter. The book gives a clear understanding of what a combat soldier experiences (physically, emotionally, and spiritually) during wartime. From 'Boot Camp' to 'Final Discharge,' the author’s story is about how service, love, and faith shaped his character for the rest of his life. 'Weapons of War' is an excellent book to read for personal growth and development. It offers thoughtful insight into the human spirit and what it takes to remain strong and focused in difficult times and situations. It is an inspirational testament to the power of faith, love, and hope.
