Editorial Reviews
Review
In Vietnam the war was not only waging among soldiers, but within hearts and minds. While brave soldiers battled fiercely and bravely, their lascivious minds weakly caved in to the perils of depravity and wantonness as lust and passion mingled and mixed freely with blood and guts equally on the same battleground. -- Jennifer Shafeeullah
