Description: New book, 226 pages, 19 photos plus maps. Vedders is a story of combat action told from the perspective of a medical officer of the 5th Marine Division on Iwo Jima. The book gives the reader a personal look at the battle from someone who had access to the reasoning behind the decisions made at battalion and regimental levels, but who was also in the thickest of the fighting from the first landing to the withdrawal of the marines.
