Former 101st Airborne rifleman and machine gunner (and long-time VVA member) Michael P. (“M-60”) Kelley’s massive, exhaustively researched, comprehensive guide to virtually every U.S. military installation in Vietnam, Where We Were in Vietnam (2002), has just been made available electronically, including on Kindle, on Amazon.com
Kelley tells us that he believes his granddaughter was the first person to download the book. “When I realized the book had become available electronically, I shanghaied [her] from school, rushed home and had her download it to my Kindle, since I’m a bit shaky on the technology, and she’s a whiz, ” Kelley told us in an electronic communication.
“Impressed mightily by her grandfather’s stature in the world of literature after it was aboard the Kindle, she looked at me and said, ‘Can I ride my bike now, Grampa?'”
