Green Beret Staff Sergant Donahu served as a medic.......... (22/22 people found this helpful)
Green Beret Staff Sergant Donahu served as a medic with a 12-man A-Team sent to Vietnam in 1966. In 1967, when he should have returned Stateside, this career Marine volunteered to join the newly coceived Mobile Gurrilla Force, extending his tour of duty by six months to do so. This book gives account of an operation on just one day, 18th July 1967, when the hunters became the hunted and Vietcong attacked Donahue's patrol. It is a gripping story, made all more redable by the author's superb descriptive style of both events and participants. A no-nonsense book that brings home the full horror of Vietnam without the gung-ho attitude portrayed by Hollywood.
