Synopsis
In Vietnam, in 1963, Leigh Wade was a radioman for the newly formed Special Forces Team A-23, a twelve-man unit sent to Tan Phu--a hell on earth in the Mekong Delta. Their mission: run sweeps and hammer-and-anvil operations, kill or capture as many VC as possible, and move back to camp before they could strike again. By the time Wade left Vietnam in December 1963, after a six-month tour, all but two of its original twelve members had been wounded or captured. Wade left Vietnam thinking that the Americans would pull out within twelve months, unaware that he would see five more years of bloody combat.Book Details
