Just over 500 Australians were killed in action in the Vietnam War. Of those who returned, 280 Vietnam veterans have officially been recognised as having committed suicide. Unofficial estimates are higher; at least 500 and perhaps over 1,000. These staggeringly high numbers are symptomatic of the treatment our governments - both Labour and Liberal - have handed out to our Vietnam Vets. Official neglect has been the order of the day.
Here at last is a comprehensive account of the Agent Orange controversy, the struggle of the Vietnam Veterans Association for a Royal Commission, and the commissioner's bitter aftermath. The first book about the treatment that Australian Vietnam veterans have received at the hands of the Government and from the general public.
