This candid memoir by Helen Sayre Jackson offers a rare glimpse into the life of a military spouse during the tumultuous years of the Vietnam War. Written as a journal, “Army green, navy blue” chronicles Jackson’s experiences as she navigates the challenges of frequent moves, extended separations from her husband, and the constant uncertainty that comes with being part of a military family. Jackson’s intimate and introspective writing style draws readers into her world, capturing the emotional rollercoaster of pride, fear, and resilience that defined life on the home front during one of America’s most controversial conflicts. Beyond its historical significance, the book serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by military families throughout generations. This well-preserved copy, with its gently worn cover and secure binding, invites readers to immerse themselves in Jackson’s compelling narrative and gain a deeper appreciation for the unsung heroes who support those in uniform.
