Life Experience

Vietnam veteran’s song.

December 9, 2021

Still feeling the hurt all these years after the end of the Vietnam War, 1975, over 45 years ago. PTSD doesn’t just go away. Veteran, Jack Murphy’s recent song on YouTube

58,000 Americans were killed in the war. The total death toll: 3 Million.

There are a number of powerful poems by Vietnam veterans on The War Poetry website.

Video received from Jack Murphy via my CONTACT form.

Thanks, Jack.

My new book of poems about love

david Roberts

My books (books I have edited) are primarily books of war poetry (mainly the First World War) and remembrance poems.

I also run a very popular war poetry website www.warpoetry.uk

These books have not been available since covid struck, coinciding with a warehouse move that went wrong. HOWEVER, you will soon be able to buy these books online direct from the publisher, Saxon Books, AND AT BARGAIN PRICES. Expect details and a link in mid July.
