Navy Corpsmen In Vietnam: The Story of Doc John Peck

Some things in life are even more unbelievable but too uncomfortable to tell, things that hurt yourself and may hurt others if you put real names and places to them. So, for me, writing this book, flowing the time line that I was, in fact, in Vietnam and mixing things up a bit, was the easy way out. I had no intention of ever writing a Historical Novel, and I certainly do it with this book. This is just a story about Navy Corpsmen in Vietnam, one particular one who loses his faith in almost everything, especially God. He wants to know why all this is happening around him and why has God allowed it? He is angry, very angry, with God and this World and just wants to understand why! The truth is he believes in God, but simply has lost faith in God. Acknowledging that it is very hard to accept that God is at work or even present when thrown in a circumstance like War.Do not get upset, or get spun around the spoke of a wheel with the details. The importance of this story is not in the minutia of small facts, but about good men in an untenable situation trying to save lives in an Unwinnable War. This particular man's story, who lost his faith in God and Humanity, but was able to regain back one of the two. I leave it up to the reader to decide where the truth may lay and where a story goes away from the path. The truth is that all of these things happened, some to me and some to others and were told to me by Corpsman and Marines during my time in NAM. Many of the experiences we endured in Vietnam we have share with one another. Others no one will ever share with anyone. They are hard to believe for those who have never been to War and maybe even for some who have. There are some experiences that most of us have deep inside. Stories that are pushed down and never visited except as nightmares in the very dark of night.This book includes true episodes of the actions and reaction of Navy Corpsman (8404) assigned to the Marines during a specific period of time of the Vietnam War. The stories are based on actual occurrences,
