The real deal

I was there (Ft. Dix Basic Trainee, 9/66-11/66) and Vietnam service (6/68-6/69). This is an excellent, well-written grunt's eye (i.e. worm's eye) of the American Army that fought in Vietnam, who they were, how they did (superbly), and how they fared afterward. A gem.

Best book on Vietnam!

M (company) is about real people, and real experiences. Read it, and I guarantee it will take you back to your days in basic training, and/or Vietnam. John Sack selected a new company of trainees at random while they were processing through the Reception Station at Fort Dix, stayed with them through 8 weeks of basic training, 8 more weeks of advanced infantry training (where he selected the title for his book - M - for M Company, 1st Training Regiment) and finally to Vietnam. I can attest to this, for I was there, and yes, I have about 2 and 1/2 pages written about me in his book! You will laugh, and you will cry, and you will love M!
