Description: New book, 400 pages. David Donovan's assignment in Vietnam was a remote and lonely posting in the Mekong Delta. He and his four-man team, without aerial support or the comforts of a well-supplied base, had to protect and lead the local village militias against the Vietcong. This book is written with rare perception about his life of uncertainty on the hellish battleground. The dreadful suspense of night patrols in the jungle and swamps, the hand to hand fighting in Vietcong ambushes are all vigorously retold.
