Patrick Naughton, Author:
"Born From War: A Soldier's Question to Understand Vietnam, Iraq, and the Generational Impact of Conflict"
Born From War: A Soldier's Quest to Understand Vietnam, Iraq, and the Generational Impact of Conflict by Patrick Naughton Jr. is more than a memoir-it's a deeply personal journey through the emotional legacy of war across generations.
Released in time for the 50th anniversary of the fall of Saigon, this book offers timely and profound reflections on military service, sacrifice, and the enduring scars of combat.
An Iraq War veteran, Patrick Naughton joined the Army influenced by his father's silence about his Vietnam service. Decades apart, their stories intertwine to reveal the powerful, often unspoken bonds between soldiers and the generational impact of war.
"This book offers a fresh perspective on Vietnam for a new generation who just endured twenty years of modern warfare," says Patrick Naughton. "And it speaks to how their children, too, will one day struggle to understand what they went through," added Patrick Naughton
The book has already drawn praise from notable veterans, including Capt. Dale Dye, USMC (Ret), who writes: " As a father and Vietnam veteran, I struggled to explain my war to my children. Patrick Naughton's family story helped me grasp that generational gap. His insights in Born from War are enlightening and invaluable."
Through wartime letters, photos, diary entries, and interviews with veterans from both the U.S. and South Vietnamese armies-including members of the 82nd Airborne-Born From War presents a rare multi-generational view of conflict. The book explores postwar trauma, failed foreign policy, and the emotional cost of military service.
Accounts from draftees, paratroopers, Vietnamese soldiers, and general officers uncover war crimes, battlefield loss, and haunting parallels between America's exit from Vietnam and its departure from Iraq and Afghanistan.
Published by Casemate Publishers, this military history memoir is essential reading for anyone interested in war's lasting effects-not just through history and policy, but through families and memory. It has already earned endorsements from veterans, scholars, and cultural figures across the nation.
Born From War is now available through Casemate Publishers and major booksellers.
