What was it like to live through the only war America lost in the twentieth century? Firebase Tan Tru answers that question by describing one mans adventures fighting in Vietnams Mekong Delta during the peak of the war in 1969. A unique feature of this story is that it focuses upon that rare enlisted man who was already a college graduate, struggling to cope not only with the authoritarian rigidity of Americas Army but also the horror and madness of the war itself. It describes both harrowing nearly fatal clashes in combat and the numerous surreal experiences encountered in that foreign land. If you are curious about how a bizarre war like Vietnam changes a thoughtful young man into cynicism and skepticism, then Firebase Tan Tru is a book you need to read. It provides insights into the personal psychology of both Americas Vietnam era officers and the enlisted men they lead as well as our Vietnamese allies and our Vietnamese enemies.
