Books by Thomas McDonald

Slavery ended 200 years ago and racism is not tolerated in the Armed Forces....supposedly. It was hard enough dealing with the training, possible deployments, personal problems, and being married to my wife as well as the military. Fighting an ageless race war within a war, but not choosing sides is too much for anyone to bear. All I wanted was to have my own military stories to share with my dad (Vietnam veteran), and to increase our bond. I didn''t think I would be too black to serve, and not black enough to fit in which mirrored his experience. I''ve had friends from both races end their lives because of it. If nothing is done, this cycle will never be broken. My mind and life is forever altered. For that reason...I''m Tellin''.
