The book was written well, but after discussing some of the things with my husband who is also a Viet Nam Vet, some of the things, that this man wrote about, are not so believable. Granted this man was in the southern part and he was there earlier than my husband, but still... It was great that he wrote home every day to his wife and she wrote to him. GIs in the jungle were lucky to get mail once a week or even 2. They were lucky to get a hot meal and clean clothes every 3 days. This GI had it easy. This is not a true picture of what the war was like for most the Viet Nam Vets.
