Major Robert H. Kyle, USA (ret.) is
the author of The Fifth Season. According to the MOAA, “Though a work of
fiction, this story is loosely based on the experiences and friendship of a doctor and a male nurse during a tour in Vietnam
(1967-68) and their efforts to merge military duties with medical aid to Vietnamese civilians. The book depicts daily activities
of an evacuation hospital and is related on a personal basis. It also tells the story of an attempt to bring an industry to
a small Vietnamese village, namely a dairy to help supply the nutritional needs of the dependent Vietnamese children, and
some of the difficulties encountered in seeking assistance form the military and the government.”
