Book excerpt: For the lonesome soldier voices in the night brings regret and depression in the daylight. For some it's a legacy of pain, for some its pride, for all PTSD can be torture. My name is Jackson and I am only one of the many returning soldiers that suffer from invisible wounds. "Step into my life, for a few minutes. I am an American soldier in the Army, just back from Iraq. This is where I lived and fought beside my friends, my family as we grew to think of one another, as we battled insurgents. Try to understand our dilemma when we return home. I am a son, I am a father, I am a husband, I am a soldier, I am a man that is conflicted, I am, I was, I hope to be again." Follow my journey. If you ask any soldier that has experienced the loss of a fellow soldier, the pelleting rain of shrapnel or the onset of relentless machine gun fire, they will tell you that all they really want is peace, to be safe at home. A soldier knows what the risk and cost are, but we all willingly fight for freedom for all.

Book excerpt: For the lonesome soldier voices in the night brings regret and depression in the daylight. For some it's a legacy of pain, for some its pride, for all PTSD can be torture. My name is Jackson and I am only one of the many returning soldiers that suffer from invisible wounds. "Step into my life, for a few minutes.

Try to understand our dilemma when we return home. I am a son, I am a father, I am a husband, I am a soldier, I am a man that is conflicted, I am, I was, I hope to be again." Follow my journey. If you ask any soldier that has experienced the loss of a fellow soldier, the pelleting rain of shrapnel or the onset of relentless machine gun fire, they will tell you that all they really want is peace, to be safe at home. A soldier knows what the risk and cost are, but we all willingly fight for freedom for all. A soldier takes an oath for our nation to go where ever they are needed at any time; even though we do not choose or even agree with the wars that we fight, we willingly go. Once your boots are on the ground you fight for the soldier that is standing next to you, the soldier that is suffering the same hardship that you are. Our main objective is to do the job that we came to do and get everyone back home alive. Each day as the sun rose in Iraq we all faced mortality, as we were attacked by mortars, rocket propelled grenades, suicide bombers, and civilians that were used as weapons, especially the children. Our company responded to each challenge with tenacity, compassion, understanding and courage, even though most of the people in Iraq wanted to kill us. When I first arrived in Iraq, in all honesty, I had a one dimensional view of the people, and then the unthinkable happened. We were on guard duty, guarding the entrance of our camp, when a little girl, not more than eight years old, walked across the street. She was heading straight toward us with a backpack on. I prayed, "Please don't let that backpack be an explosive device." The closer she got to us the more she started to change, in my mind she became my eight year old niece. All though I knew better, I started to walk towards her when I felt a hand on my shoulder, it was my commander George, he said, "You can't go to her." I looked toward her, our eyes met for a brief second and she was my niece, just as the backpack she was carrying exploded. I made a promise to these kids right then and there to protect them, at all cost. That's the day my personal hell began.

Book excerpt: Mike Malloy was like so many of our young men, all searching for their place in life. The Vietnam War put Mike on a road he didn't want and couldn't handle. The battle field is one hell of a place for a young man to grow up, but you grow up fast or not at all. In war people are killed, most of them intentionally, but some get killed by carelessness or by accidents that can't be controlled. The killing of an old man put Mike on a road his mind couldn't cope with, driving him into the depths of depression and loneliness. This is his story:

Download or read book The Long Road Home written by David J. Toynton and published by Austin Macauley Publishers. This book was released on 2024-05-24 with total page 682 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This narrative unfolds the life of Ernst, a young German soldier during World War II, caught at the crossroads of duty and family loyalty, stretched between Germany and England. At nineteen, Ernst navigates the tumult of his own moral dilemmas against the backdrop of a war-torn landscape, accompanied by an officer who has vowed to see him safely home. As we journey through the pages, we’re drawn into the visceral experiences of war-torn Germany. Nightly, as Ernst and his comrades traverse the roads under the cover of darkness, the ominous hum of bombers overhead is palpable, each man acutely aware that their loved ones are in the crosshairs. In the daybreak’s light, the crimson hue of their burning cities stains the horizon, a constant reminder of the devastation being wrought upon their homeland. The story doesn’t shy away from the shared fear and terror that grips both German and American soldiers, delving into the harrowing plight of US troops captured and held as prisoners of war. Despite the hospital’s eerie quiet, indicating few casualties are being brought in, the war’s end in 1945 doesn’t immediately herald peace for Ernst and his comrades. It’s not until four years later that they can finally part ways. Returning to a country he can call home, Ernst confronts the suspicion and distrust from those around him. It is during this turbulent time that he meets a young woman who helps to heal the bitterness of war. Together, they embark on a life filled with hope, leaving the shadows of the past behind as they step into a shared future.

Download or read book A Long Way Gone written by Ishmael Beah and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2007-02-13 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My new friends have begun to suspect I haven’t told them the full story of my life. “Why did you leave Sierra Leone?” “Because there is a war.” “You mean, you saw people running around with guns and shooting each other?” “Yes, all the time.” “Cool.” I smile a little. “You should tell us about it sometime.” “Yes, sometime.” This is how wars are fought now: by children, hopped-up on drugs and wielding AK-47s. Children have become soldiers of choice. In the more than fifty conflicts going on worldwide, it is estimated that there are some 300,000 child soldiers. Ishmael Beah used to be one of them. What is war like through the eyes of a child soldier? How does one become a killer? How does one stop? Child soldiers have been profiled by journalists, and novelists have struggled to imagine their lives. But until now, there has not been a first-person account from someone who came through this hell and survived. In A Long Way Gone, Beah, now twenty-five years old, tells a riveting story: how at the age of twelve, he fled attacking rebels and wandered a land rendered unrecognizable by violence. By thirteen, he’d been picked up by the government army, and Beah, at heart a gentle boy, found that he was capable of truly terrible acts. This is a rare and mesmerizing account, told with real literary force and heartbreaking honesty.
