Served Australian army, including war service in the Vietnam War in 1968 - 1969. Came home to public shunning of Vietnam Veterans and discrimination against Vietnam Veterans by potential employers. This resulted in the setting up of the first business, (contract fencing) because I could not get a job. In due course, I studied for Advanced Diploma of Egineering Technology, Associate Degree of Civil Engineering and I am now doing my Arts degree. It was during the study of the arts degree that I became interested in the history of Northern Europe and Germania during the times of Julius and Augustus Ceasar. This led to researching and writing of the second book entitled 'For the Love of Armin'. Currently studying Bachelor of Construction Manage ...more

The Full Circle for Mick

This is a revamp of "Full Circle for Mick" and it goes a lot further into what really happened behind the scenes in the Second Indochina War, which is commonly called the Vietnam War. I take the reader behind the scenes of what politicians were doing in London. Paris, Canberra and Washington. It does not matter how the politicians of Australia, Britain, France and the USA try to present it, the fa Read more of this blog post »

Michael Kramer answered a question about The Full Circle for Mick: The foreword calls this story Historical Fiction, and also says some material is a matter of record while some is invented for flow. How did that framing shape the way you judged what felt like history, what felt like novel, and what felt like a blend of both? First came the research. It was easiest to start with the official record of speeches given in the Australian Parliament (Hansard). Also, I looked at what others had written about the attitudes of the then ruling governments of Liberal/Country Party See Full Answer

“He said, “Sir, we are in a very bad position! We have lost many soldiers KIA (Killed in Action) and many more are wounded. Sir, today is the twenty third of March, and I suggest that we get the hell out of the entire Hoa Binh area before we all end up as dead men!”

“After March in 1945, the Japanese felt threatened by possibility of the people of Indochina rising against them. Therefore, they stated:
“We of the Imperial Japanese Army have only invaded other Asian countries in order to remove the European and American white man from Asia! Stick with us Japanese and together we shall make Asians great while we kick the whites out of the entire region!”
