"If your mother says she loves you-check it out!" This phrase,uttered by an investigative reporter,is the basic theme of this "necessary" book on the Vietnam War. Forget "Rambo" and the myriad other pretenders who were nowhere near Southeast Asia;the authors go to great lengths not only to de-bunk most of the hype about the war and,instead,give us a remarkable picture of the brave men who fought this unpopular conflict. Their valor was stolen by many,including Hollywood,and this volume does a great service in setting straight the record of the true,American fighting man. Anyone who served at the time will relish the research presented and those who weren't there will be reminded of more current incidents of "stolen" valor such as the Tilman dust-up in Afghanistan. I highly recommend this title to anyone interested in military history.
