The Second World War split the twentieth century in two; the pre- and post-WW2 were two periods a world apart. It is not possible for a post-WW2 person to understand life before and during that war. That may explain why those who survived the transition are reluctant to talk about it for their tale is met with incredulity. However, it is a tale that must be told lest we forget. It is unfortunate that those who truly value freedom and understand its fragility are the ones who once lost it. If it were not so people would be more vigilant guarding it.J.R. Collard grew up in a quiet farming community of the Belgian Ardennes, a region twice invaded by German armies in their march toward the North Sea and the English Channel. His family was active in the resistance. After the war he and his sister emigrated to the United States.

None of these stories has any meaning beyond what the reader might impart to them. They are merely scaffolds on which the reader will create their own imaginative worlds. Stories unlock a door into the world of the imagination and usher the reader down its paths. As we tread the paths of our imagination guided by the words flowing across a page, we may relate the images conjured up by the text to our own lives, adding perspective and possibly enriching our experiences. Such is the power of fiction. It is largely why I wrote these stories.There are tales about war and how it affected both the people who suffered from it and also the perpetrators of violence. Some stories deal with escape from psychological threats, and how one individual deals with tragedy. Others are about the search for meaning and happiness. Some are simply weird, such as the story of an intimidated student trying to impress malevolent Examiners. A gothic tale describes the fate of an obsessive collector and his possessive objects. Reading and tiling will never be the same again once you have read those stories. Speculations about an old photograph will change the way you look at photos.

A disturbing chronicle of the US government’s mistreatment of American soldiers and veterans throughout history, with a new introduction by Charles Sheehan-Miles Time and time again, the sacrifices made by veterans and their families have been repaid with scorn, discrimination, lack of health services, scant financial compensation, and other indignities. This injustice dates back as far as the American Revolution, when troops came home penniless and without prospects for work, yet had to wait decades before the government paid them the wages they were owed. When soldiers returned from the Cuban campaign after the Spanish-American War, they were riddled with malaria, typhoid, yellow fever, and dysentery—but the government refused to acknowledge their illnesses, and finally dumped them in a makeshift tent city on Long Island, where they were left to starve and die. Perhaps the most infamous case of disgraceful behavior toward veterans happened after the Vietnam War, when soldiers were forced to battle bureaucrats and lawyers, and suffer media slander, because they asked the government and chemical industry to help them cope with the toxic aftereffects of Agent Orange. In The Wages of War, authors Richard Severo and Lewis Milford not only uncover new information about the controversial use of this defoliant in Vietnam and the subsequent class action suit brought against its manufacturers, but also present fresh information on every war in US history. The result is exhaustive proof that—save for the treatment of soldiers in the aftermath of World War II—the government’s behavior towards American servicemen has been more like that of “a slippery insurance company than a policy rooted in the idea of justice and fair reward.”
