The author Guy Hall wrote to our sub-branch about this new publication that is timely for Vietnam Veterans' Day:

"I am a serving member of the ADF and the son of a Vietnam veteran. In 1999, as the child of a veteran of that long and difficult war, I published a short memoir of my experiences, titled Our Vietnam. 

I have now independently re-published that small (70-page) book as part of my One Night Read collection. This time, I am proud to say that I am doing so in collaboration with my own adult children. The official launch of the book will be conducted at the Norfolk Island RSL sub-branch on the 20th August 2025, the week of Vietnam Veterans Day. 

Through my words and my daughter’s moving illustrations, I hope to give a new generation of readers an insight into the impact the Vietnam War had on families and the veterans who returned home.

In doing so, I also hope to inspire a wider audience to reflect upon the consequences of war, any war. 

With Vietnam Veterans Day approaching, I hope that my little book might be of interest to your members and their families. I have attached a flyer about the book, including links to our Tiny Fish Publishing website, where your members can select their retailer of choice for purchasing the book online.
