No Pistol Tastes the Same (PTSD Disaster Book 1) by Jacob Paul Patchen – Review by Kimberly Filer

No Pistol Tastes the SameNo Pistol Tastes the Same by Jacob Paul Patchen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A true account of what happens to individuals during war and when they return home. PTSD is so common, yet people fail to acknowledge those who suffer from it. It was heart retching reading some personal accounts at the beginning of the story from true solders who currently suffer from this mental health disorder. Raised as a little boy playing war on his grandparents’ property, he and his grandparents were very close as is he with his wife and child but that was then. When Seargent JP Grimm returns home from the war he is different, he couldn’t save them, and the baggage weighs heavy on him. He couldn’t shoot the bomber who resembled his young son the one he sees every time he closes his eyes. A truly riveting story of what some soldiers go through each and every day when they return home from war.
