The Snipers on Okinawa WWII,
By Christy Eberhardt (San Pedro, California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Handsome Guy: True story of the elite Marine Scout/Snipers during the WWII Battle of Okinawa (Paperback)
We taught our Marine Scout Snipers to "creep, crawl and sneak" for the sole purpose of hunting and killing men from ambush. "A Handsome Guy" revisits a true life story as told to the author, Phillip R. Dolan, by the Scout Snipers themselves. It is a chilling, realistic account which forever changes the reader's preception of War. It becomes clear that these men actually enjoyed the stalking and the pursuit of their fellow men; they thought of them as "fair game." They even competed to see who could rack up the most kills. The deprivation they were forced to endure was horrible. They were "starving to death" and covered with blood, mud and fleas. This account is clear, honest and was the result of extensive research. If you have never fought in a War, you will experience it as if you were there. If you are a History buff, you will enjoy the detailed account of all the action. if you want to read about real heros, read "A Handsome Guy."
