Harrowing, impactful, inspiring. Gave me a lot to think about, especially considering the US funded atrocities happening in Palestine at the moment.

Every young civilian working on DOD contracts should read this especially if they're LGBT. 

Very insightful to something that was going at the same time as my youth that I didn't understand at the time.

I’m not sure what was going on with the narration, but you could tell where a passage started and stopped. Whoever did the editing did a really poor job. It kind of ruined the listening experience
