On the ground, in the air, and behind the lines, grunts made
life-and-death decisions every day--and endured the worst stress of
their young lives.
It was the tumultuous year 1968, and Robert Tonsetic was Rifle
Company commander of the 4th Battalion, 12th Infantry in Vietnam.
He took over a group of grunts demoralized by defeat but determined
to get even. Through the legendary Tet and May Offensives, he led,
trained, and risked his life with these brave men, and this is the
thrilling, brutal, and honest story of his tour of duty. Tonsetic
tells of leading a seriously undermanned ready-reaction force into
a fierce, three-day battle with a ruthless enemy battalion;
conducting surreal night airmobile assaults and treks through
fetid, pitch-black jungles; and relieving combat stress by fishing
with hand grenades and taking secret joyrides in Hueys.
During that fateful year, as unrest erupted at home and politicians
groped for a way out of the war, Tonsetic and his men did their job
as soldiers and earned the title "Warriors."
