Cong Catchers: A Soldier's Memories of Vietnam

Cong Catchers: A Soldier's Memories of Vietnam by Lee Halverson. Paperback edition. ISBN: 9781635259827.

Lee spent January 1969 to December 1970 in the US Army. Cong Catchers is a compilation of events that occurred while he served. This is not a guns-and-ammo book. It is a book about a young man with Christian values at war. A young man who avoided the pleasures that were readily available and instead organized football games, drank soda, avoided drugs, and helped repair orphanages. You will enjoy meeting many of those he served with and the ways they coped in very adverse conditions. These young men served our country with valor and returned home to a less-than-friendly society.
