Annotation
Missing in Action (Booker, Tom) P.O.W., patriotic. Soldier & home front perspective. Christmas reference Goodlettsville, Tennessee, USA. Post-war 90s. I'm off to fight a war - not sure why. Kissed family goodbye She won't rest until I'm back. Back I'm M.I.A. in South Vietnam - alive or dead, return me. Proud to serve our nation. They made us sign confessions and look happy on Christmas day. It's been so many years since I've seen my daughter
