A story well told

The author served as a lieutenant in the Korean war and shares with us some of his front line experiences. In a warm and vivid style, he tells of the problems of an inexperienced youngster in charge of men. Sensitive descriptions of his travails are interspersed with lively accounts of the war going on around him. Rather remarkably, the author maintains a gentle tone throughout these horrific events. The result is an artistic presentation that captured and enthralled me.
