Description
No one can speak about the souls of the men who served in the Vietnam War except those service members who actually fought on the ground, in the air, and on the sea. Only these special individuals can describe their combat experiences, affording us powerful insights into their personalities, behaviors, and morals with vivid descriptions of life-altering warfare events that remolded each man in his own “Crucible of Combat.” Life-altering decisions and close combat actions have awe-inspiring and permanent impacts on individuals and recast the very core of every individual, as well as their values, convictions, vulnerabilities, strengths and perceptions. The accounts of closely-contested battle situations and ultimate survival are exclusive life scenarios full of unexpected plot twists, with capture or death possible consequences.
