When Called to Serve by John Horan-Kates PDF Summary

Book Description: WHEN CALLED TO SERVE is the story of the visceral tensions of anger and violence set within the complexities of the ’60s Cold War era. A distinguished three-generation military family struggles with the agonizing patriotic, moral, and spiritual dilemmas of the Vietnam War. The politicians and military leaders claimed it was crucial to honor our commitments around the world, whereas the protesters challenged the “system,” arguing that authority was corrupt and immoral. The narrative exposes the tensions between the principled notions of service, dedication, and loyalty set against the injustices of discrimination, economic inequality, and government secrecy, plus the suppression of human rights. The protagonist, Richard O’Brian, is a navy chaplain who fights to keep his family together with an alternative worldview that acknowledges the situation is an argument without end. What does one do when called to serve? What is America’s responsibility around the globe? Should we always defend freedom, as President Kennedy said, by “paying any price” or by simply helping other countries help themselves, realizing they must solve their own problems? Tracing the root causes of the Vietnam War, the story posits how the failure to understand the other, how the lack of trust created by deceitful communications affect families as well as organizations—and nations.
