NOT JUST “ANOTHER WAR STORY:” Wheatland author and decorated Vietnam veteran Lee Alley will be at the Wyoming State Museum, 2301 Central Ave., Cheyenne, on Wednesday, July 26, 12:30 p.m., to speak and sign his book “Back from War: A Quest for Life After Death.” Governor Dave Freudenthal will then join Alley Thursday, July 27, 11 a.m., for a book signing. “I had no intention of telling another war story,” Alley said in a press release. “But, rather wanted to let people know what soldiers go through in readjusting to civilian life after war. It doesn’t matter what the war or the conflict – if just one veteran, a veteran’s family member or a loved one reads this and says, ‘maybe, I’m okay after all,’ this book is a success.” Lt. Alley was shipped to Vietnam in July 1967 and served as the infantry platoon leader, recon platoon leader and infantry company commander. FMI: 307-777-7022
