Description

This book details the military experience of Marine William Bisbing. Mr. Bisbing enlisted in the Marines and did his boot camp training in San Diego, California. After training, he was sent to Vietnam, where he spent his tours as a Combined Action Group Marine (military advisor), which meant that his units coordinated with local Vietnamese forces and set night ambushes for the NVA and Viet Cong infiltrators. Mr. Bisbing relates the pressures of trying to do one's combat job under trying and precarious circumstances. Fighting at night against an often-unseen enemy and participating with allies who at times might secretly be enemy sympathizers, Mr. Bisbing with great sensitivity eloquently reflects the thoughts, feelings, and emotions of those young Marines who performed daunting tasks night after night under the most perilous of conditions. There are many other episodes of life on the frontier of military life and combat revealed by Mr. Bisbing. Mr. Bisbing concludes with some heartfelt reflections on his perception of the meaning of the Vietnam War as perceived from his own experiences and those of fellow Marines and the impact these experiences have had on their sequent lives.

To be a marine means you will always have brothers. Those brothers share what it means to be in a very special family. Those marines who shared combat together, share blood spilled and enter that special place in heaven reserved for them.
