Publisher's Synopsis
To survive in Vietnam and come home alive, it required elite training, strong belief in our training, mental and physical repetition of the training, and real true relationships. If we got distracted, failed to pay attention, disobeyed, ignored, or forgot what we were there to do, our percentage of surviving was greatly reduce. Believe me, there were many things to distract us. Some of us became addicted to drugs and or alcohol, Others got hooked up or sex, while others enjoyed the thrill of living on the edge. These are but a few of what was there to destroy us, before we even went on a mission to face what our enemies had for us or the snakes, diseases, and animals of the jungle. This book tells a very interesting, exciting, and intriguing story of my training, experiences, relationships, and firsthand knowledge as a United States Army Staff Sergeant with the 75th Airborne Rangers in 1969 and 1970, performing reconnaissance missions behind enemy lines. And in 1971, serving as a ranger adviser with the 2nd Ranger Command in the mountainous jungle region of border camp number six at village Plei-Mrong, South Vietnam near the Cambodian border. My mission was teaching and training Mountain Yard and Vietnamese soldiers in ranger warfare techniques and assisting them in relocating civilian villagers that were being plundered by the enemy.
