In February 1968, the U.S. Army's 82nd Airborne Division was
understrength, with only enough paratroopers to deploy a single
brigade. The 3rd Brigade was flown 9000 miles to reinforce American
units fighting the North Vietnamese Army around Hue--received a
Valorous Unit Award for their actions there. James Dorn was on
Brigade staff. He later led a rifle platoon with the 3rd in the
rice paddies west of Saigon. In his second year with the 173rd
Airborne Brigade in the Central Highlands. he again led a platoon
until promoted to captain. His frank and detailed memoir recounts
their diverse combat missions, inhumanity for civilians and the
day-to-day life of Infantrymen in the field.
