Editor's Note:
It’s 1972, and under Nixon’s direction U.S. troops are being withdrawn, while the U.S. Navy’s presence and role is elevated. He orders the Navy to mine major harbors and waterways in the North, blockading supplies and armaments sent by Russia and China from entering the country. Campaigns named Linebacker, Lam Son and Sea Dragon are conducted to counter and reverse gains made by the North Vietnamese Easter Offensive against the Republic of Vietnam. These campaigns called upon the full complement of the US Navy Task Force 77 to unleash punishing raids against coastal installations, supply routes and depots in the north, as well as continue to provide fire support for allied forces in the south. Chris Columbo, a once promising officer candidate, following a devastating heartbreak, forfeits his NROTC scholarship, abandons his studies and dream of becoming a naval pilot. His life careens into an abyss of self-pity, where he immerses himself in a lifestyle that only leads to a series of failures. Upon hitting rock bottom, the Navy offers him a lifeline. They invoke a provision of his scholarship contract and order him to report for active duty. Desperate to escape his downward spiral, he accepts that lifeline and despite his opposition to the war reports for active duty. Within three weeks of receiving his orders he finds himself in Subic Bay, crossing a gangplank where he reports aboard the guided missile destroyer USS Lawrence (DDG-4) as a seaman 3rd class. A week later the ship and crew arrive off the coast of Vietnam as active participants in the war, a fact which was punctuated to Chris as he witnessed the nearby shoreline erupt in fireballs and smoke from a payload of bombs unleashed from a B-52 above. A disciplined life aboard the ship, the camaraderie of the crew, the rigors of combat, the long days at sea, the sights sounds and pleasures of exotic locations throughout the South China Sea would cause Chris to come of age and change the course of his life. THE FUNNY THING ABOUT WAR is an irreverent, revelatory, and often humorous historical fiction, providing a rare perspective of the Vietnam War through the exploits of Chris and his shipmates. Chris's journey will change him forever. He only needs to survive their final and most terrifying firing mission deep into well defended Haiphong Harbor.
