I served as an infantry soldier with Co. C. 3rd Platoon, 2/502 , 1st Brigade of the 101st Airborne Division in Vietnam.

Much of what is in the book deals with my day to day experiences we encountered during my time there.

Most of what you'll read is a "bottom up" perspective from my view as an enlisted soldier.

The firefights we engaged in were vicious and deadly and there was little time to reflect and absorb the experiences at the time.

This book, to the degree it can, tries to shed light and explain those times.

For those on the outside, the Military might seem as one homogeneous group, but you can rest assured - every soldier's story is different.

This is one of those stories.
