This is the story of a baby boomer, me. My book, "A Boomer's Tale" is a fun and sometime serious stroll through the life and times of me. I interject as much humor as I can in the hope I can educate, starting with my childhood in the 50s, coming of age in the 60s, my Marine Corps and Vietnam experiences in the 70s, then coming home and trying for a normal life, while struggling every day with the PTSD that was not diagnosed for 40 years. Getting help through the V.A. has changed my life for the better so, it's never too late to seek help and help is out there.

If you are a baby boomer you may see yourself in the pages of this book, if you are not a baby boomer, it will give you an insight about how your parents or grandparents lived their lives back in the day. (No not the stone age.)
I drove a truck cross country on and off for 30 years, so there are stories about truck driving. I am a musician I play the sax and sing. If I could figure out how to do both at the same time, I could get rich. I ride a Harley, and I AM Santa Claus so come enjoy my life story.
A Boomer's Tale was be launched November 10.
There is a Facebook group called We Are Boomers: https://www.facebook.com/groups/356962802251614 that has a lot of information about this book. There is another group https://www.facebook.com/groups/234581148470182 that is strictly an information site concerning this book.
Please help me get the word out. There may be some wisdom that may help my fellow vets who are dealing with PTSD. Help is out there, my brothers and sisters.
