[Chuck · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is a semi-sequel to "Charlie Mike" with some of the same characters and, of course, several new ones as well. Once again Mr. Scott makes you feel as if you are a member of the unit, complete with all the emotions and horror of war. This is another piece of yeoman's work by Leonard Scott. Thanks again, Jim.

I found this book somewhat tattered and sun bleached under the seat of a 1985 GMC Safari that I bought for $500. Set in Vietnam and following a team of soldiers into each battle with such great storytelling you feel like you can smell the sweat and gun powder.

The way this book is written brings out the way the military works in terms that the non-military person can undersatnd. It also covers both sides of the war, and has love in it also. I read this book cover to cover in one sitting. I still read it often. Great book.
