This book was released on 2011-07 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ventura County's military history encompasses much more than the strategic naval bases that have occupied the shorelines and flatlands of the Pacific Coast from Point Mugu to La Conchita. Individuals from Oxnard, Ventura, Port Hueneme, Camarillo, Santa Paula, Thousand Oaks, Moorpark, Simi Valley, Fillmore, Ojai, Piru, and the other cities, towns, and neighborhoods in the county proudly served their country in times of war. The images in this book pay homage to some of those individuals--men and women who sacrificed so much to preserve freedom. From the European and Pacific fronts of World War II, to the snowy winters in Korea, through the tribulations of the Vietnam era, this book goes beyond the broad scope of war and into the personal experiences of Ventura County's heroes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the modern history of American veterans, it is sometimes difficult to separate myth from fact. The men and women who served in World War II are routinely praised as heroes; the “Greatest Generation,” after all, triumphed over fascism and successfully reentered postwar society. Veterans of the Vietnam War, on the other hand, occupy a different thread in the postwar narrative, sometimes as a threat to society but usually as victims of it; these vets returned home to a combination of disdain, fear, and prolonged suffering. And until very recently, both the public and historians have largely overlooked veterans of the Korean War altogether; the hit television show M*A*S*H was set in Korea but was more about Vietnam. Long Journeys Home explores the veteran experience of World War II, Korea, and Vietnam. It examines and dissects the various myths that have grown up around each of these wars. Author Michael D. Gambone compares and contrasts the basic elements of each narrative, including the factors that influenced the decision to enlist, the impact of combat on life after the war, the struggles of postwar economic adjustment, and participation in (or withdrawal from) social and political activism. Gambone does not treat these veterans monolithically but instead puts each era’s veterans in historical context. He also explores the nuances of race, gender, and class. Despite many differences, some obvious and some not, Gambone nonetheless finds a great deal of continuity, and ultimately concludes that Korean and Vietnam veterans have much more in common with the Greatest Generation than was previously understood.

Some were drafted, many enlisted, but the 47 veterans who are profiled in this book, wherever they served and whatever they went on to after their military service, have one noteworthy element in common: they were patriots who put their lives on the line when needed and gave their support in World War II, the Korean War and the Vietnam War. They helped make history, and a future for us all.

Book excerpt: "I wonder if the Star-Tribune could do something to help thank Wyoming's Vietnam veterans for their service," said Wyoming Veterans Commission Director Col. Larry Barttelbort in 2015. The commission was planning a reunion for Vietnam veterans to mark the 50th anniversary of the war. Barttlebort was not asking for a few free ads or a front-page story about the reunion. Those would be welcome, but he remembered when the paper told the stories of 104 World War II veterans in weekly full-page profiles in the Casper Star-Tribune and the Casper Journal that culminated in the publication of a hardcover book and a celebration for the veterans and their families. Barttlebort was not shy - he asked for a repeat performance for Wyoming's Vietnam veterans - and we readily agreed. We interviewed and photographed veterans from every corner of Wyoming and all points in between. We talked with members of every branch of service, serving everywhere from tunnels underground to spy planes high in the sky, from PT boats in the rivers to aircraft carriers and hospital ships. The stories are different, but each tells the tale of young men and women whose lives were shaped by their military service in Vietnam. The profiles in "They Served with Honor: Vietnam" tell of service first to country, and then to community. Each begins with the veteran's Vietnam experience and follows their return home to build a life. Most never quit serving their communities. At the start of this project, for example, four Wyoming mayors and a county commissioner were Vietnam veterans. The Vietnam War was a confusing time for the county and its veterans. Many came home from their time of service and were instructed to take off their uniform before leaving the airport so they would not be harassed. There were no brass bands. There was no parade to welcome soldiers home, and few thanked them for their service. Many never told their stories. To each Vietnam veteran, included in these pages or not, we say thank you. Thank you for your service, and thank you for allowing us to learn your stories. The honor is ours -- Dale Bohren.-- from the flip cover.
