All Expenses Paid 2.0

by John Launer

John Launer served in the United States Army during the Vietnam War. All Expenses Paid 2.0 summarizes All Expenses Paid as how to become a Combat Infantryman, then continues with the second half of his military experience. It covers the human aspect of the war, through the Winning Hearts and Minds program; spending time with the South Vietnamese people, especially the children; his R&R to Sydney, Australia; and finally returning home. Launer also documents the lasting physical and psychological effects on himself and all veterans who served there. Containing a glossary of military terminology and Aussie slang to enhance the narrative, All Expenses Paid 2.0 includes period photographs taken by the author and his fellow soldiers.

I liked it up until the point where he bashed women and said they can only be nurses.
