Description
"A Different Battle features over 50 stories from veterans of Asian and Pacific Islander descent living in Washington. Their stories reveal the unique struggles Asian Pacific American veterans faced because of racism.". "Their stories, however, also reflect experiences that are universal to all veterans: the lasting bonds created among fellow soldiers; the shock of entering combat for the first time; the sense of loss from seeing friends killed or wounded. The veterans have different opinions about the necessity of war, but they agree that war is not a glorious adventure. It's a hellhole. They hope that by giving readers a look at war through the eyes of those who experienced it, people would consider more thoughtfully war's impacts on individuals." "A Different Battle also includes "Proving Ground: The History of Asian Pacific Americans in the U.S. Armed Forces," by Ken Mochizuki and Carina A. del Rosario. "Proving Ground" offers important information about the little known contributions of thousands from the group."--BOOK JACKET.
