Whether under nigthly mortar attack in An Hoa, with a Marine company in the bullet-scarred jungle, on secret missions to Laos, or on dangerous two-man hunter-kills, Ward lived the war in a way few men did. And he fought the enemy as few men did--up close and personal. A Dual Main Selection of the Military Book Club [close]

recommends it for: anyone

i've read this book many, many times and i am always awed by the author's ability to suck you into the experiences that he is having. this is a good technical, tactical, theoretical and sociological account of war through a marine sniper's eyes.
