This is a terrific book. The first few chapters are of the authors childhood and up until he is drafted into the army. Parts are hilarious. When his training is completed, he is shipped to Viet Nam where the chaos begins.
Drafted is filled with war gore, action, adventure, heartbreak and laughs. It is not for the squemish.
The way the author tells the story makes you feel as though you are watching it in a flick on a big screen. It is the kind of story that keeps you turning the pages and when finished you are disappointed because you are done reading it. It will make you laugh. It will get your heart pumping. And he put in some pic's as well.
Drafted, by William C. Stodgel, may be purchased online at Amazon.com, Barnes and Nobels and all over the internet. The price ranges depending on where you purchase it. It's in both paperback and hard cover.
The pic on the cover and those in the book were all taken by the author. It is an awesome story. I've read it five times myself. He is a magnificient story teller and leaves you wanting more.
Get yourself a copy. You will not be disappointed. Drafted is unlike other war stories you may have read. It will lead you through the life of a young boy turned man and the most chaotic year of his life. It's a great story for all young men and women that feel they'd love to join the military. This story lays it on the line and tells it how it was for him.
Don't miss this one. Make sure you read it and then purchase a copy for someone else.
