With the explosive firepower of his military classics Marine Sniper and Silent Warrior, Charles Henderson gives a startlingly realistic account of the Marines hellish introduction to a new kind of warfare in Vietnam and the raw truth about how it produced a new kind of American soldier.

That year, the war s carnage became frighteningly real to television audiences back home but the Marines were already displaying the fighting courage of experienced heroes. They had quickly learned the first rule of combat: Kill or be killed.
