Synopsis

THE CODE OF THE GRUNTS WAS COMMIT OR DIE...
The red, yellow and blue of the North Vietnamese flag flew defiantly above the thick walls of the Citadel - ancient seat of emperors in the heart of 'Nam's most strategic city. The US brass wanted the historic monument taken, but they didn't want it damaged in the process...
For mavericks D.A. and his partner Steve, the mission assigned to them could be reduced to two simple tasks -climb the walls and kill the gooks. But as the Marine
grunts were turned to hamburger meat and the body bags filled, the battle of Hue City became a living nightmare from which there was no escape.
CITADELgraphically conveys the horror and brutality of the Vietnam War through potent, vivid images and realistic, fast-moving action: its hard-hitting authenticity is derived from the firsthand experience of retired US Marine officer Dale A. Dye, bestselling author of PLATOON.
