Yes Sir, Yes Sir, 3 Bags Full! Volume II: Flying, Friendship, and Trying to Make Sense of a Senseless War
Jerry Hall's spiral into the Vortex continues with Volume II of Yes Sir, Yes Sir, 3 Bags Full! As a Forward Air Controller (FAC) in the Viet Nam War, Jerry's journey takes him from innocence and a profound sense of pride in wearing his uniform to the depths of despair, self-loathing, and grief. In Volume II, Jerry tells the story of his rapid decline into alcohol abuse and dangerous living. In doing so, he offers a heart-wrenching account of what it was like to fight a war that was a source of both anger and protest among many American citizens of the era.
This book, as well as Volume I, is a must-read for anyone who is interested in history and the military, and how post-traumatic stress disorder impacts survivors of trauma and their loved ones.

An amazing journey into the cockpit, hooch and mind of an Air Force captain on his first tour in VietNam. Very, very funny in parts, heart wrenching, exhilerating, and brutally honest. A must read for anyone interested in the human condition.
