Book Three brings closure to the trilogy of the series of Viet Nam and Other Interruptions and introduces the presence of God into the struggle which at first seems to be a given to all conditions, but is so often difficult to ascertain when one in the midst of dark times. There is nothing like matters of war and trauma to obscure His Presence when we are most in need of Him. Yet this trilogy is not a discourse about religious ideology; it is about finding help for those who are victims of traumas-war, in particular, and other insults as well. This author found peace through reconnecting with his faith in Jesus, the Christ and help through a variety of resources including the Veterans Administration which continues to be a medical and psychological ally, as well as, a social network of other veterans pulling together. The writing of a variety of pieces in the three books provided a vehicle of expression to outlet many discouraging and damaging and dangerous moments that God saw fit to see him through, but also to provide guidelines and encouragement to others in similar black pits, lost moments, hurtful occasions, and trials. Read with caution and expectation. Read with hope and wonderment. Most of all, read with promise! Shalom to all!
