One man's story of his experience during our early involvement in Southeast Asia - 1961 - 1963 - a period of the war which has rarely been described. Naive and sheltered, a twenty-year-old son of a Pennsylvania working class family joins the army and becomes a Green Beret as our commitment in Vietnam is deepening. He knows nothing of brutal, dehumanizing treatment until army training. He has never heard of U.S. Special Forces until his high intelligence scores allow him to apply for the elite unit. The visions once held of heroic combat, the glory, all ring false as he learns the lessons of war. He lives among the Meo and Montagnards tribesmen of the Central Highlands as part of a CIA operation. There is nothing except fear, suffering, and death. The reader will recognize the authenticity, directness of tone, in its richness of detail, and the force of its emotional impact.
