. In the fall of 1970, a young reporter, eager to learn what the Vietnam War is really all about, gets himself sent to a small forward Army camp in the Central Highlands that the men have dubbed Fort Nowhere. As time passes and he becomes more and more involved with the men and their mission, he realizes that this small company of dedicated soldiers are the only ones standing between the friendly people of the village and the murderous Viet Cong who want to wipe them off the map.
Along the way, he learns about life, love, courage and despair and discovers something about himself that he'll forever wish he hadn't as he becomes a member of this unusual brotherhood.
Fort Nowhere, Vietnam, is based on actual people, paces and events that occurred between September 1970 and March 1971. It is a hard-hitting, often heartbreaking story of men in combat and the lives of the people they touched and vividly depicts the ways that the horror and chaos of combat brings out the very best--and worst---of the men who endure it.
