Title: Into the shadows furious
Description: If you want to read an interesting story about young men in a dark, dripping island jungle and in fierce combat for their first time, this might be for you.  It is filled with personal accounts of poorly-trained soldiers going temporarily mad in their new environment, pilots who were shot down in the Pacific and managed to survive, and crew members who had to to swim to tiny enemy-held islands after their ships were torpedoed.  It describes the Japanese defenders as dedicated and as vicious an enemy that ever was.  Prisoners taken?  Hardly.
