The most revealing histories of wartime are not narratives about blood and glory on the battlefields. Much more revealing are the personal stories of men engaged in the day-to- day business of survival. With humor and insight, Friendly Fire tells how that business played out for men fighting the third year of the war in Korea. A delightful tale of an unconventional hero coming of age in an unconventional war, Friendly Fire offers an irreverent and often hilarious insider's view of how military command--"The Brass" to use the author's words--carried on a war that couldn't be won.
