Michael D. "Moon" Mullins, award winning author of "Vietnam in Verse, poetry for beer drinkers," served in with D Company, 3/7th Inf., 199 Light Infantry Brigade, in Vietnam from 1968 to 1969. Like many young American men, Mullins earned a Purple Heart while still a teenager.
Mullins began writing “Vietnam in Verse,” poetry for beer drinkers as a way to share his experiences. “It became more than that,” Mullins said. “I found myself writing things others could not write for themselves.It was not all blood and guts; there were times we laughed, there was camaraderie. The book became a voice for others.”
“Vietnam in Verse” is a book of poetry, but not the poetry you read in high school – Mullins is a storyteller. The book is also available in a two-disc audio book, and Mullins said the proceeds from which will be donated did veteran service organizations.
“Vietnam in Verse” is available on line from Amazon, B&N, and B-a-M book stores & available as an audio-book exclusively from the author. To learn more send an email to mullins.m.1@comcast.net.
