Product Information
Despite all that has been written about Vietnam, the story of the 1-A-O conscientious objector, who agreed to put on a uni-form and serve in the field without weapons rather than accept alternative service outside the military, has received scarce atten-tion. This joint memoir by two 1-A-O combat medics, James C. Kearney and William H. Clamurro, represents a unique approach to the subject. It is a blend of their personal narratives--with select Vietnam poems by Clamurro--to illustrate noncombatant objection as a unique and relatively unknown form of Vietnam War protest. Both men initially met during training and then served as frontline medics in separate units "outside the wire" in Vietnam. Clamurro was assigned to a tank company in Tay Ninh province next to the Cambodian border, before reassignment to an aid station with the 1st Air Cavalry. Kearney served first as a medic with an artillery battery in the 1st Infantry Division, then as a convoy medic during the Cambodian invasion with the 25th Infantry Division, and finally as a Medevac medic with the 1st Air Cavalry. In this capacity Kearney was seriously wounded during a "hot hoist" in February 1971 and ended up being treated by his friend Clamurro back at base. Because of their status as "a new breed of conscientious objector"--i.e., more political than religious in their convictions--the authors' experience of the Vietnam War differed fundamentally from that of their fellow draftees and contrasted even with the great majority of their fellow 1-A-O medics, whose conscientious objector status was largely or entirely faith-based.

Reviews
" Duty to Serve, Duty to Conscience will make a significant contribution to the literature in the field for several reasons. There are few memoirs by legal Vietnam War noncombatant conscientious objectors, and Kearney and Clamurro's accounts of their experiences as medics will provide invaluable source material for future historians writing on this subject. Their keen attention to historical details of time, place, and action, interwoven with personal recollections, impressions, and sentiments, provide readers new perspectives on reconciling the duty to serve one's country with the duty to serve one's conscience."-- Jean Mansavage , historian with the US Air Force "The great strength of this book is Kearney's compelling story, Clamurro's vignettes and poems about his service in Vietnam, and their enduring friendship nurtured in the Texas heat of basic training. It's a 'buddy' story with conscience at its center."-- Gary Kulik , former conscientious-objector medic in Vietnam and author of War Stories: False Atrocity Tales, Swift Boaters, and Winter Soldiers--What Really Happened in Vietnam "This is no simple military memoir. Written from the unique vantage point of serving as 1-A-0 medics, Kearney and Clamurro deftly weave an ethical challenge into their writing, asking the reader to step into the position of dutifully serving their country in wartime while preserving their commitment to do no harm. The authors provide an unfiltered look into the paradoxes, absurdities, banalities, tragedies, and mundane daily activities related to the American military action in Vietnam, always prompting us to consider how far our consciences would allow us to go. And, more trenchantly, asking us what we would sacrifice to maintain our integrity to two competing values."-- Mark R. Teasdale , E. Stanley Jones Professor of Evangelism, Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary
