Served Australian army, including war service in the Vietnam War in 1968 - 1969. Came home to public shunning of Vietnam Veterans and discrimination against Vietnam Veterans by potential employers. This resulted in the setting up of the first business, (contract fencing) because I could not get a job. In due course, I studied for Advanced Diploma of Egineering Technology, Associate Degree of Civil Engineering and I am now doing my Arts degree. It was during the study of the arts degree that I became interested in the history of Northern Europe and Germania during the times of Julius and Augustus Ceasar. This led to researching and writing of the second book entitled 'For the Love of Armin'. Currently studying Bachelor of Construction Manage ...more

The Full Circle for Mick

This is a revamp of "Full Circle for Mick" and it goes a lot further into what really happened behind the scenes in the Second Indochina War, which is commonly called the Vietnam War. I take the reader behind the scenes of what politicians were doing in London. Paris, Canberra and Washington. It does not matter how the politicians of Australia, Britain, France and the USA try to present it, the fa Read more of this blog post »

Michael Kramer answered a question about The Full Circle for Mick: In the scene where Mick announces he has become a naturalised Australian citizen and his mother reacts strongly, what ideas about identity, loyalty, and home feel most alive in their exchange? I grew up in Australia, and therefore, I am an Australian. As the book clearly shows, I dared to stand by my principles and firm beliefs, so, either rightly or wrongly, I became an Auustralian and volunteered for the war!

Michael Kramer answered a question about The Full Circle for Mick: Early on, the narrator tells you they will refer to Michael by his preferred name, Mick. What does that direct address do to your sense of closeness and trust with the narrator and the story? I am Mick, my full name is Michael G Kramer, and I uuse the suffix of OMIEAust. which shows my Australlian engineering qualication in order to avoid confusion of readers due to the fact that here is an American author who also has the name of Michael See Full Answer

Michael Kramer liked Chapterr's review of The Full Circle for Mick: "The Full Circle for Mick is part historical overview and part personal war story, and it wears both halves very openly. Yep, it is absolutely a doozy of a tome in the sense that it wants to take you from the bigger political and military context stra" Read more of this review »

Michael Kramer liked DuckyEGG's review of The Full Circle for Mick: "This one surprised me in the best way. I expected straight military memoir with dates and unit numbers and a bit of score keeping.

“He said, “Sir, we are in a very bad position! We have lost many soldiers KIA (Killed in Action) and many more are wounded. Sir, today is the twenty third of March, and I suggest that we get the hell out of the entire Hoa Binh area before we all end up as dead men!”

“After March in 1945, the Japanese felt threatened by possibility of the people of Indochina rising against them. Therefore, they stated:
“We of the Imperial Japanese Army have only invaded other Asian countries in order to remove the European and American white man from Asia! Stick with us Japanese and together we shall make Asians great while we kick the whites out of the entire region!”
