Summary: Hill 488
Comment: Of all the books on Vietnam, this rates at the top of the list. However, and this is no reflection on the book, why is the famous picture of Khe Sahn on the cover. This is Robert Ellison picture of the main ammunition dump blowing after being taking a direct hit by mortors. Robert Ellison lost his life at Khe Sahn returning to the base while it was under siege with a plane load of Marines in a plane crash.

Summary: RIVETING!! SPELLBINDING. A REAL PAGE BURNER!!
Comment: I don't write many reviews, but this book deserves one.
I won't go into all the details about why this is a great book to read, other than to say, it was well done/written. I couldn't put it down. A real page burner! You actually relive their night of horror on Hill 488. It was like being there!
After reading the book, I loaned it to my 73 year old mother-in-law, who has little interest in "a war story". When I told her it was based upon fact, she borrowed it. Later she said, she couldn't put the book down until she finished it, then she wanted to know if she could loaned it to her friend from church. (Because she thought the book was so good)
All my mother-in-law would say "is those poor, poor boys! What they live through. I had no idea about the fighting in Vietnam."
Please don't miss this this really great book! You'll be glad you got to share in their fear, survival, bravery, and heroism!
To All Veterans,
Thank You.

Summary: And I don't even read
Comment: I enjoyed this book and I don't even read. I never read books about Viet Nam but my friend Joe said read this. Six hours later I was finished reading but I'm still not finished thinking about the books contents. And Ray call your nephew.
