"The Hometown Battlefield"

This is a very poignant song about PTSD.

I hope you will enjoy it and pass it on.

We are losing 22 vets to suicide every day in this country, many of them Vietnam vets who are just giving up.


Also, here is the up-dated link to "1965" a beautiful song by Patrice Webb, my fav chanteuse, about a homeless vet, inspired by her reading of my book,  (I was NOT the homeless vet she saw on the street.)

"The Adventures of a Helicopter Pilot, Flying the H-34 in Vietnam for the USMC.'

In the meantime, we are taking advantage of beautiful weather here in lovely Sandpoint, Idaho, to begin to prepare Charlie the H-34 for her up-coming events for this year. First gig, the "Lost in 50's" parade and old car show.

Stay tuned form updates.
