A first-hand account of the Vietnam War written by Johnnie M. Clark. The book follows a young machine gunner in the 5th Marine Regiment as he experiences the brutal reality of combat during the late 1960s. It is considered a classic of Vietnam War literature for its raw, unvarnished look at the life of an infantryman and the bonds formed between soldiers in the heat of battle.
