In Class of '67, former Marine lieutenant Jack Wells delivers a
moving and fitting eulogy to the forty-three lieutenants who were
in Marine Officers Basic Class 6-67, and who died in Vietnam.
Another classmate died years later in Lebanon. As the war
escalated, the number of Marine officers sent into battle increased
dramatically. The highest eschelon of Marine commanders were
greatly concerned about the high casualties, but with the war
raging, and with Marines never backing away from a fight, or trying
to protect their men, the casualties continued to climb. This book
is a memorial to those men who made the ultimate sacrifice for
their men and country. As Wells introduces each of the forty-four,
readers will be moved by the enormity of loss: loss of youth, loss
of leadership, loss of the best...and the brightest. Whether we
support a war or march against it, nothing diminishes the
significance of what each man sacrificed for country and family.
Over 160 color and b&w photos, plus 14 maps in the book.
