Synopsis:
James Ebert distils the experiences of sixty army and marine corps infantrymen into a readable, insightful narrative of the Vietnam War. Based on personal interviews and oral history collections, he paints a picture of a typical year that begins with induction, moves on to the war "in the bush" and concludes with the return to a hostile America. From patrol skirmishes to division-scale battles set in rice paddies, jungles and densely populated cities this superior account covers brings to life one of histories bloodiest and most controversial conflicts. Insight into one-year tours of duty in Vietnam Draws on vivid first hand accounts
