A Year in Vietnam with the 101st Airborne, 1969-1970
ISBN: 9781329657137 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The author was one of many reluctant soldiers who served in the Vietnam War. Drafted out of graduate school and trained in the infantry, he spent a year with the 101st Airborne. This work is a journal of the experience, a day to day description of what it was like in a "grunt unit" fighting in the Central Highlands, dealing with the heat, the bugs, the rain, the endless patrolling in the villages and mountains, the ever present boredom and occasional violence. It's not all exciting action but it's always real.
