Vietnam Story -- A Personal Account
This is a must read to understand an infantry soldier's combat experience in Vietnam. Also, recommended reading for troopers in the 82d Airborne Division to gain insight and lessons learned from combat that still apply today.

How can you rate any soldier’s experience in the Vietnam War? A remarkably emotional story about a 20 year old being drafted and having to survive in the depths of the Vietnam jungle. It makes me sick to think about how many young men lost their lives, even adjacently in this book alone.

This hit harder than I was expecting with a fast storyline and a touching love story mixed in.
