Book excerpt: Twenty-four hours later, the storm was finally over. When we went above deck, we saw how bad it had been. Armored personnel vehicles and tanks that had been tied on the decks were no longer therejust gone. Two of the ships in the convoy were badly damaged, with twisted parts of superstructures and decks strips bare. In spite of the significant damage, the ships were capable of moving on. So we continued toward Vietnam. It was trouble before trouble. In The Dark Shadows of Vietnam, Joseph Babine relates his personal experiences from one of the most controversial eras in American history. Packed full of heart-wrenching stories of loss on the battlefield and uplifting moments with fellow war-stricken soldiers searching for purpose in an unjust war, Babine's words will touch you in a way only such a harrowing book can. By collecting his memories and sharing them with the public, Babine has assured himself that he will never forget what he experienced so many miles from home. Although he has since been focused on getting on with his life, he will never forget The Dark Shadows of Vietnam."
