The final story is told by a Marine machine gunner who was in numerous skirmishes and ambushes, in I Corps, and also the battle for Hue. Other stories include those told by a marine infantry officer who was awarded the Medal of Honor for heroism and leadership in fighting at villages named Dai Do and Dinh and and a U.S. naval aviator who was shot down and tortured, while held prisoner, by the North Vietnamese. Volumes 1-4 of this series contain combat experiences told by 57 Vietnam War veterans.
