This website outlines the story of one Vietnam Veteran's life after the Vietnam War. As you browse the pages of this site you will come to understand some of the struggle Vietnam Veterans still wrestle with today. My story is not uncommon in Vietnam Veteran circles. At a time when the young men of our nation upheld the finest traditions of the ANZAC and the Aussie "Digger" in the jungles of Vietnam, a nation rejected them on their return, and hindered their ability to lead normal lives through indifference and anger that was made personal against our servicemen and women. For those who read these pages and are not a veteran, I pray that as you read you will come to understand the struggle we veteran's and families went through and the struggle so many veterans still have today especially our young diggers returning from active duty.
