About this listen
Under Fire, Under God: – the Medic, a reverent memoir chronicling the harrowing journey of a combat medic during the Vietnam War. From the intense training at Fort Sam Houston to the chaotic front lines of Chu Lai, Firebase Dottie, and LZ Baldy, the author recounts his year-long deployment with the Americal Division, tending to the wounded and dying while under constant threat.
Written with unflinching honesty and spiritual introspection, this book sheds light on the mental, physical, and moral burdens carried by medics—soldiers without rifles but armed with courage, compassion, and conviction. Amid the mud, blood, and trauma of war, the author finds moments of brotherhood, grace, and divine protection.
The narrative includes vivid combat memories, the tragedy of slow communication home, and the dangerous exposure to chemicals like Agent Orange. It also explores the jarring emotional disconnect between the field and the rear, culminating in the author’s transition home and his final assignment at a First Aid Station near base camp.
With a deeply personal lens and a voice shaped by PTSD and memory, this memoir is more than a war story—it’s a testament to faith under fire and a tribute to the forgotten heroes who saved lives in the shadow of death. This is not just the last war story the author will tell—it's the one he was meant to tell.
