Astonishingly sad, yet Heroic

This book is not just a " Story", but is a series of interviews from women ( now) who were young Girls ( then).The pain, horror, and yes, anger, that these women feel now is evident in each one's story. None of them HAD to go to war--They were all volunteers. They went for their " Brothers" who needed them. How selfless !These women, today, continue to suffer from the aftermath of their selfless duty, yet the American Public STILL does not even recognize them as those who saved lives and sanity of the boys who served. Mr Steinman did a remarkable job

A MUST read for all interested in stories of Women in Nam

This is indeed an Oral History told by the women who volunteered their time to go to Viet Nam. Most were not "women" at the time, but just young girls. Their stories were just recently told, and they seem to share a common thread in their telling: The desire to HELP their Country and the young soldiers in America's longest war. Mr. Steinman's Introduction is masterfully done.
