I bought this from the sale shelf at the branch library, along with half a dozen others that were on the wish lists of PBS comrades. I had time to read a few pages and found it to be a quite introspective autobiography, reading first the part about when he opened his footlocker thirty years after it was shipped home from 'Nam. Unfortunately, I then looked through the photos. Mr. Timburg was badly burned on active duty and has made a fantastic recovery. I am glad that he got a decent pension and good medical care. The pension is a big help when one wants to pursue a career as a writer!
