BOOKS

REMF by:  Rick Smith
"A new book about serving in the Vietnam War....."  REMF is a different story of having served in the Vietnam War.  There are no tales of battlefield terror or glory.  Instead, Smith's heartfelt tales of brotherly love and personal love reveal an untold but important version of having served in Vietnam.  Enjoyed by men and women alike, REMF is a respectful, introspective, humorous tale of life in the rear.  Stories like none ever told. 

     Note from the author, Rick Smith.....I am a Vietnam veteran who has self published a new book about serving in Vietnam.  REMF is a collection of short stories about serving in the rear.
     REMF is a different story of Vietnam than any told before.  I was stationed in Long Binh -- behind the lines -- and saw no combat duty.  I was also a draftee rather than regular Army.  My story is about life interrupted as well as about my Vietnam experience.

Dear Veterans:                                                               Here is the book you’ve been waiting 30 years to read! America Won the Vietnam War! (ISBN 1-594672-95-4). This examination of the Vietnam War is not a detailed account of the battlefield struggle. Instead, it looks at the goals and objectives as stated in the rhetoric of America’s leadership. The criteria used for judgment are the public records of the achievements or failures of those goals and objectives. This work is not only necessary for historical accuracy, but it is also imperative in the cause of justice for the brave men and women who fought and won the war. To the unappreciated veterans of Vietnam, I say: "You may not have received a parade when you came home. The media may continue to malign your name. However, beginning here, it is my hope that you will see the record of your courageous achievements corrected and the history of your selfless service acknowledged, as I reveal the best-kept secret of the twentieth century: America Won the Vietnam War! "Or" How the Left Snatched Defeat from the Jaws of Victory." To order America Won the Vietnam War either call 1-866909-2665 or order online at http://www.xulonpress.com/bookstore/titles/1594672954.htm Thank you for your service,                                               Dr. Robert Owens                                                          PS: I apologize for using unsolicited email to contact you regarding my new book, but a book proposing this view of Vietnam will never receive any publicity through major media channels. Therefore I have taken this route to alert persons I believe might be open to a view of the Vietnam War that does not conform to the accepted view that America was defeated by the Communists.
