"PROPERTY OF THE U.S. ARMY"
They had stamped it on his T-shirt, his footlocker, and the plastic stock of his M-16. Decades later, he'd find they'd stamped it on his soul.
Ed was just twenty years old when a Vietcong landmine ripped off both his legs below the knee. After only four months and four days in combat, Ed found himself in a hospital bed fighting for his life a life he would barely recognize when he returned to his small-town Ohio home.
After five decades of struggling through alcoholism, drugs, failed marriages, and physical abuse, Ed shares his story for the first time, processing the lifelong impact of combat ... of coming home to a nation that didn't want him ... of physical and mental wounds that never fully healed.
As Ed reveals his truths to readers, he discovers something for himself: that war is hell but that life and liberty are always worth fighting for.
