Thank you from a "war protester" Although a Viet Nam War protester at the time, I have always sympthasized with the the plight of those who served. I have also harbored some "survivor guilt" for not having to share these experiences with my classmates who were there I stayed up all night . Traderdale said Great Read. This is one of the best books about the Vietnam war experience. It goes into great detail about the horrors the average foot soldier experienced during combat in South Vietnam. It must be part of every Vietnam war book collection.. "Thank You Richard F. Hogue" according to Kent Franklin Heiderich. I wish to thank Richard F. Hogue for writing this book. One of the characters was my 1st cousin Danial " Whitey" Heiderich. The family never knew exactly how Danial was killed in Viet Nam till he contacted us & let us know he was publishing this book. Mr.
