    <![CDATA[This hard-hitting graphic novel examines life on opposing   sides of the Vietnam War through the eyes of two young men.  Bill Everette   is a 19-year-old Alabama farm boy who's been drafted into the Marine Corps,   while 19-year-old Vietnamese farmer Binh Dai enlists in the People's Army   of Vietnam to fulfill his duty to his country.  <p>  Along the way, Private Everette encounters demonically vicious drill   instructors, talking maggots, voiceless ghosts and a rifle that begs him to   shoot himself.  Vo Dai must undertake the long march south through black   forests and bloody swamps, past tigers, dragons and mounds of dead.  Both   men struggle with their own demons and nightmarish visions ... before their   inevitable showdown.  <p>  This impeccably researched, critically acclaimed book heralds the arrival   of two new superstar talents: writer Jason Aaron and artist Cameron Stewart   (SEVEN SOLDIERS OF VICTORY).</p></p>]]>
