A Vietnam War combat memoir from the perspective of an
artilleryman.Impact Zone documents Marine First Lieutenant James S.
Brown's intense battle experiences, including those at Khe Sanh and
Con Thien, throughout his thirteen months of service on the DMZ
during 1967-68. This high-action account also reflects Brown's
growing belief that the Vietnam War was mis-fought due to the
unproductive political leadership of President Johnson and his
administration. Brown's naivetE developed into hardening skepticism
and cynicism as he faced the harsh realities of war, though he
still managed to retain a sense of honor, pride, and patriotism for
his country. Impact Zone is a distinctive book on the Vietnam War
because it is told from the perspective of an artilleryman, and the
increasingly dangerous events gain momentum as they progress from
one adventure to the next. Impact Zone is not only an important
historical document of the Vietnam conflict, but also a moving
record of the personal and emotional costs of war.
