5.0 out of 5 stars
Great book about one unit from the 'Forgotten War',
This review is from: Fire Mission!: The Story of the 213th Field Artillery Battalion in Korea 1951-1954 (Paperback)
This is a great book about one artillery battalion's journey through the entire Korean Conflict. It gives very good insight into not just the history of the 213th Field Artillery Battalion, but also of the men themselves, how they felt, what actions they did, what they thought at that moment in history. An excellent reference material for anyone wishing to find out 'what was it like?' during the Korean War.
The 213th originally hailed from the great state of Utah, and kept the proud tradition of being known as the 'SHOOTIN' UTES' all through it's travels in Korea.

5.0 out of 5 stars
excellent unit history with lots of interviews,
This review is from: Fire Mission!: The Story of the 213th Field Artillery Battalion in Korea 1951-1954 (Paperback)
This book is a great example of a unit history told by the men themselves thru personal interviews and remembrances. From it's induction into federal service to demobilization after the war, the 213th Field Artillery is well chronicled. The pictures included in the book show them in Korea through all eras, 1951, 52, and 53. The different artillery pieces used are also impressive for one unit to utilize. A good solid read all around!

Courage Under Fire,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Fire Mission!: The Story of the 213th Field Artillery Battalion in Korea 1951-1954 (Paperback)
This book contains the memoirs of many young soldiers of the 213th FA who were involved in that Forgotten War in Korea. It exemplifies their courage during the first year to eighteen months of combat where there was not any KIA from their unit in spite of the severity of some of the battles they were involved in. Many of these men were in their late teenage years or early twenties when they were sent to Korea. They performed above and beyond their expectations. These soldiers, and many others of the Korean War should never be forgotten for what they have endured during this time. It is sad but it is truly a Forgotten War. They need to be recognized for their courage just as others who participated in other wars were. They should not be Forgotten!!
