Colors of WAR & PEACE, a pastiche of stories, spans the long divide between chaos and community. Assigned to Top Secret, Studies and Observation Group (SOG) during the Vietnam War, the author returned home to school, family and career. But the arc of his war had not reached its apogee. Driven by an addiction for risk and desire to reorder his war, the author shares stories of his inexorable fall. Illuminating and powerful, these stories provide an intimate portrayal of how memories once buried, rise again from the dead.
