This is one of very few personal accounts of the Vietnam war. It includes "controversial, gripping, first person accounts of what it was like to helicoptered into the jungle to fight guerrilla-style battles after receiving minimal training". Vets also talk about the role of camaraderie and mateship, the competitiveness and the nightmare of fighting under incompetent officers.
