Synopsis
Written in 2013, from the viewpoint of a Marine Corps machine gunner in Vietnam from 1968 to 1969, the narrative portrays the wisdom and perspective gained in the years since then, yet two unique features assure that this work is free of any Excerpts from letters home show the most personal and private thoughts of a Marine in that place and time. Historic accuracy is further assured by inclusion of declassified Marine Corps reports, containing casualty data and battle details with precise coordinates. Naturally, the subject matter is powerful, and indexing those reports with the author's own experiences plus those of several fellow Marines allows this story to be told with unprecedented realism. This book will grant civilians insight towards the experience of combat ... both immediate and long-lasting, and it will grant Veterans the hope that not everything lost in war is gone forever.
