About the Book

Vietnam Remembered Today is a compare and contrast story of brothers in Vietnam at the same time with dramatically different experiences and outcomes. Mark was in a support function while Don was in the jungle fighting the enemy until injured. We describe what many encountered during the Vietnam Conflict. This memoir will resonate with others who cannot tell their story but want others to know what they endured, and it provides a broader perspective for those who were not there. The background on the Vietnam War (not officially declared) reviews the critical battles and events that shaped the military and political strategies. It provides an in-depth look at Vietnam; before, during and after the tour of brothers was completed. Our book includes the history of the Vietnam Conflict from 1950-75 and highlights the critical battles and events that shaped the military and political strategies including: Ia Drang Valley (LZ-X-Ray), Siege at Khe Sanh, Tet Offensive, My Lai murders, bombing of Cambodia and the Kent State shootings. There were 27 million men eligible for the draft in that era. Nine million served in the military and only three million served in Southeast Asia. Our stories describe what many encountered during the Vietnam Conflict and represent many of the 2.6 who served in Vietnam. This memoir provides a broader perspective for those who were not there and want to know about that era. Interestingly, many women have purchased the book as they want to know what their brothers, uncles and fathers faced. Our narrative is dedicated to those who fought in Vietnam and to the family members who still care for those seriously wounded. And, we believe those of that era who did not serve in Vietnam will gain a perspective on the conflict and that time period. More than 58,000 American soldiers died in Vietnam, 75,000 were permanently disabled, and another 80,000 were seriously wounded. This story explains why this happened. May they all find peace. Mark spent eighteen months in Vietnam, serving there at the same time as his brother Don who was drafted a year later. After Mark graduated from Kent State in 1972, he worked in the corporate world for more than thirty years before retiring in 2006. He then wrote a book titled: Sales Secrets Today, highlighting the most important ideas for achieving superior sales. Don was drafted in 1969 into the Army as an infantryman. He went through NCO advanced training at Ft. Benning before being deployed to Vietnam. His experiences included several frightening encounters with the enemy, both on his Reconnaissance assignments and his regular grunt job. Don Shaughnessy is also a graduate of Kent State and has worked at the Ashtabula Post Office until he retired a few years ago.
