The students at Adames high school graduation were called the last of the war babies, those born during the final months of World War II. Little did they know that their own war was only a few years away and that it would hit them and the country right between the eyes. Adame believes his account mirrors the stories of thousands of guys and gals caught up in a point in history that challenged a generation and a nation. He was fifteen when the era of rock and roll, drugs, and free love began. As if all of that weren't enough, there was Vietnam.
