Featured Person-Michael Muller

MACV CORDS Operations Advisor, Binh Chanh District, 1970.  Briefing officer for DEPCORDS Ambassador Funkhouser to CG & staff, III Corps Vietnam, 1971.  In addition to briefing the staff I briefed visiting officials such as the Secretary of the Army.  He was in Vietnam for one tour.

Author, Vietnam Veteran, Retired Psychologist / Counselor

This month I wanted to highlight someone who is a part of our organization. I've known Mike now for at least 10 years. Mike is a genuine soul. I know many others who also truly admire Mike.  He is a retired professional counselor / psychologist for many years which includes counseling combat veterans. Mike served in Vietnam as well.

We choose Mike this month because we appreciate all that he has contributed and added to our organization and me personally as a friend through out the years. He has a compassionate heart. This is the thing I admire most about him.

Recently, after twenty-seven years since I wrote the first draft, I published my novel on Kindle.  It is A Dream of Heaven, written under my pen name, Michael FitzGordon.  I hope that people will read it and enjoy it.  Bob Kerrey read an earlier draft and wrote that it was “a compelling portrait of the destructive force of hatred, the ravaged psyches of those who have experienced war, and the enduring power of faith and love.”  I hope that people will gain a greater understanding of how one can develop PTSD.  The main characters are both American and Vietnamese, and I hope that readers will see war from both sides, see the folly of war, and work harder to avoid war.
