I'm sorry for the author's pain and the suffering he experienced, but I didn't enjoy his telling of it. col2910https://www.blogger.com/profile/06422138069939709043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-86907459234867526762019-02-18T03:10:47.716-08:002019-02-18T03:10:47.716-08:00Sorry you didn't enjoy this one, Col.

The journey back to peace for some vets is a difficult one, and there are a lot of compelling possibilities for a plot, based on that journey. But this one just doesn't sound like my cuppa.
