The Real Vietnam War

It's refreshing to read a book on a conflict that tells the story of the ordinary Joe. Finding out what it's really like to go to war and be at the bottom of the heap makes for a story that I found hard to put down. Any one thinking of a career in the military should read this book before they sign up.That said the Author does seem to find himself during that year in Vietnam, and it certainly introduced him to new ideas and concepts, albeit in some extremely scary and at times funny situations. A good read and hard to imagine the current generation suffering the same traumas with such dignity.
