Title: Facts behind the facts
Product review: Book did a pretty good job..but always remember there are always things you won't see in a book.This action was taken by a company of the 11th brigade..who had just arrived in Viet-Nam from duty in Hawaii.The worst way to go to Viet-Nam was with a whole Brigade or Division...there were NO experienced veterans with them to help keep these guys alive...and they were taking very heavy casualties,especially from booby traps,ambushes,etc.Most had not even seen the enemy yet!This is not an excuse,but lets not rush to judge 19 year old young men who were seeing their friends die all around them...first thing i learned in Viet-Nam was the women and children were also the enemy..many of our guys were killed by them...I know because i was in the 11th Brigade also at the time.
