Twenty-nine did not return. Greeted with indifference and hostility upon their return home, they learned to suppress their memories in a nation fraught with tensions. Now these veterans have begun to tell their stories, which have been collected and recorded in this book."-- Provided by publisher Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Online resource; title from PDF title page (EBSCO, viewed October 22, 2018) Subject Soldiers -- Connecticut -- Stamford -- Biography Vietnam War, 1961-1975 -- Connecticut -- Stamford Vietnam War, 1961-1975 -- Veterans -- United States -- Biography Vietnam War, 1961-1975 -- Personal narratives, American BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY -- Historical.
