Ordination Vows: Practically Considered, in a Series of Sermons (1846)

Occupied Japan is the setting for Tour of Duty. This occupation was complicated by the fact that it was taking place during the Korean War. This is one of the least understood and least reported times in American history. Americans were still recovering from World War Two and were weary of war news from foreign countries. This period is also remembered as the best of times for most Americans. The 1950s are still looked back on as an almost idyllic decade. However, it was still wartime for the brave men and women fighting in these foreign lands.Understanding this unique time in history will help as you read Tour of Duty. You will be entertained and educated as you read some of the adventures of our forgotten fighters. Silvers hopes you will come away with a feeling for what it was like to be there and also a deeper understanding of that period in American history.
