Missions of Fire And Mercy: Until Death Do Us Part by William Peterson has the goal to reach out to those families that do not understand why their loved one who fought in Vietnam was so silent about the service. The author hopes that it will shed some light onto what they went through and why the men and women who were there can’t talk about it; and that it will bring healing to those who did serve. It will show them that they should be proud of the service they gave with honor and bravery and that their memories are not broken or faulty.
I have a father-in-law who served in Vietnam but he never speaks of it and if you try to ask him about it he usually changes the topic. I can honestly say that one of the goals that author William Peterson had with this book has happened for me. After reading this very telling and, often times for me, hard to read book, I understand it. I completely understand why he does not talk about it much. The story is well written and laid out in a way that is easy to read in the sense that it flows. The survival and everything around it is a roller coaster, though, and I am even more amazed after reading this at what our soldiers go through when they go to war. This is well written and something that I would suggest to anyone who has a family member who served.
