A Vietnam War veteran paints a searing portrait of his one-year tour of duty as an Army draftee, shedding light on the emotional and physical casualties of war

In this intimate memoir, Perry A. Ulander chronicles with powerful clarity the bewildering predicament he confronted and the fellowship and guidance that transformed him during the year he served as an American GI in the jungles of Vietnam. Conveying with unadorned precision the harrowing experiences that shatter his core beliefs, Ulander also captures the camaraderie and humor of his platoon, the hostility between “lifers” and draftees, the physical hardships of reconnaissance missions, and the unrelenting apprehension underlying everyday life. Ultimately, he describes the surrendering of social norms and accepted identities that allows him to glimpse a previously unimagined realm of heightened awareness.

Written after a lifetime of reflection on the nature of war and the effect of violence and domination on the minds and spirits of those forced to practice it, Walking Point offers a powerful narrative for readers with an interest in the effects of war and violence, American involvement in Vietnam, PTSD, and how trauma can be a catalyst for spiritual transformation. Giving voice to profound insights gained through extreme adversity, Ulander movingly captures the depth of trust and commitment among a group of unwitting warriors who struggle to stay alive and sane in unchartered territory.

really enjoyed this book, it's not all about fighting in the jungle it's more about friendship over coming a ludicrous war.

I was deeply moved and inspired by this book and did not want it to end. Perry's account of his time in the Vietnam War and the ways in which he changed and was transformed through the extreme tension he found himself in and realisations he had, is fascinating and extremely powerful! If you are only after a regular action packed war story this book may not be for you. The altered states of consciousness and heightened awareness he reached through his own awareness control and explorations are truly beautiful. The raw natural surroundings and fascinating characters around him all added to this personal and spiritual transformation. I listened to this book over the same time as a group of friends of mine did, and we can't stop talking about it. Would highly recommend!

Powerful, Mesmerising and Inspiring!
