"For a Time We Were Titans" is the memoir of an LRP/Ranger in
Vietnam. It follows ten GIs from their arrival at the LRP compound
in Ban Me Thuot in October 1968 to the authors return home in
September 1969. It shows that those that last can grow from raw
recruits, to Titans, leaders that serve as mentors and role models
for those that came after them.
This is the war as a LRP saw it. LRPs were the Long Range Patrol
units that served as the eyes and ears of the infantry, who were
dropped into enemy territory and given the responsibility of
finding the hiding places of an elusive foe. It is not the story of
massive battles and strategic operations, but rather depicts actual
contacts between four and five man LRP Teams and unknown numbers of
North Vietnamese or Vietcong.
