Description: Echoes From the Infantry is the fictionalised tale of one Long Island veteran, the misery of combat, and the powerful emotional bond that connected him to his fiancee back home and that allowed him to survive the war with his soul battered but intact. It is about a father and a son, and their ultimately redemptive struggle to understand the worlds that shaped each one- one a world at war, the other a world shaped by its veterans.
