Uncommon Valour


Uncommon Valour is a rap by The Rugged Man - Jedi Mind Tricks otherwise known as R.A Thorburn

Its about the Vietnam War. The second verse is actually a completely true story about his father, John A. Thorburn. He was affected by Agent Orange and it handicapped two of his children that later died early from it.

"Coming from a broken home, R.A.'s father was a Vietnam veteran affected by Agent Orange. His family was forever changed by the potent chemical — his brother Maxx was born handicapped and blind, eventually dying at the age of 10, while his sister Dee Ann couldn’t walk or speak. R.A. tells the story of his father, Staff Sgt. John A. Thorburn, in the Jedi Mind Tricks track "Uncommon Valor: A Vietnam Story"
