Que Son Valley is actually a large area of hills and valleys just to the west of Da Nang, Viet Nam. During the 1960s, units from the United States Marines and United States Army engaged the 2nd North Vietnamese Division in heavy and close combat. Our mission was to keep the enemy from capturing the cities of Da Nang, Tam Ky and Chu Lai and to pacify the area. We did prevent the enemy from capturing these vital cities but, the area was far from pacified. Many young, brave Americans were killed or seriously wounded in these hills and valleys in the belief they were helping the Vietnamese obtain freedom and peace. Although our altruistic beliefs might have gone astray, it was my honor serving with these fine men and women. I wrote this book in honor of them and to keep their memory alive. I hope that, when you read this book, you will understand the Vietnam Veteran better and you will understand, not the political Vietnam War, but the Vietnam War that an Infantryman lived through.
About the Author: Michael H. Cunningham is the author of five books. His first book, Walking Point, tells the story about his life as an infantryman in Viet Nam. His second book,In Safe Hands, chronicles his almost thirty year career in U.S.Customs. Stories about drug smuggling, money laundering, people smuggling and terrorist-related events regale the reader. His next two books,Wake of the Warrior and Fear No Evil are novels about maritime terrorism based on Mr. Cunningham's real-life experiences. In his latest book, Lost in Viet Nam, Found in America, Mr. Cunningham tells the story of the Vietnamese "boat people" and all they endured fleeing their homeland for a better life. Based on true stories, the author tells a riveting tale of sheer terror, horror and tragedy. While not writing or researching material for his next book, Mr. Cunningham is actively involved in assisting returning veterans acclimate back into civilian life. He is also intimately involved in many philanthropic projects in Viet Nam.
