Book excerpt: Walkin' 'Round the Mason is a semi-autobiographical novel chronicling the story of two brothers, who, as young men, both served their country during the Vietnam War era. The core of the story is where they landed. Ernie, a US Navy construction Seabee, was ordered to Vietnam to build and fight. Freddy, a US Army communications specialist, was ordered to Thailand to work in top secret communications. The dichotomies of their worlds reveal one place where blood, limbs, lives, innocence, and minds were lost, and the other where beer, booze, women, and drugs caused a different loss of innocence.
