A book notice in the Des Moines Register attacted my attention to, With Love Stan: As historian for the Sullivan Brothers Iowa Veterans Museum, I had been looking for an authentic, personal account of service in Vietnam. When I read the book, I knew I had found the "real thing." Here was an unvarnished narrative of a young soldier in the field. In his letters, he captured the fear of the battlefield, the anguish of loss, the humor of the absurd, and the pride of service. Through all his experiences, he always made the connection with family and home.
The family's reflections on Stan help to further difine him and the men who served with him. The letters and photos will form the core of our Vietnam exhibit. We consider it a great privilege to present his story in the museum so present and future generations can better understand the meaning of service and sacrifice.
