In the Story

In No Room on the Ark, author Paul Bellerive relives actual experiences through the fictionalized character of Rod Finch, an Army paratrooper assigned to the 173rd Airborne Brigade while in Vietnam. Though Finch's friends question him on why he would voluntarily enlist while the war was being ridiculed, his personal integrity and allegiance encourage following the footsteps of others who have served their country. Finch and his girlfriend Lauren equitably accept that it is his time to go.

We soon find Finch transforms from regular high school kid to combat warrior when assigned to a remote mountain area in South Vietnam. Though little time is spent in real jungle warfare training before advancing to danger zones, Finch learns survival under the tutelage of a seasoned, good-natured soldier.

Tasked with capturing and routing villages of small, but well-trained bands of Viet Cong from the North, Finch is quickly entangled in a calamitous mission; one that's seriously impaired by cocky officers and racially divided troops that show little willingness to co-exist, even when terrorized by an assailing enemy.

Two years later, and with luck on his side, Rod Finch comes back to New England, landing at the entrance of his homeland but unwelcomed in a society teeming with anti-war protestors, radical politicians, and a public displaying observable contempt for soldiers in military uniform. People not only want to forget the war, they outwardly ostracize those who've been fighting it. At this stark societal crossroad, Finch feels out of place. Moreover, he must deal with his former girlfriend who has moved on to college, and employers hostile to hiring Vietnam veterans.

Though home at last, Finch cannot climb aboard the America he fought for, so he involuntarily retreats. Still, the emotional suffering continues from extended dislocation and constant, lustful remembrances of Lauren. Inspired by the gravity of his growing anger and despair, he embarks on a passage to lasting salvation.
