Reviews:
-
Clarke's purpose is to set the record straight--clarifying reports and stories that have failed to accurately depict what happened.

-
Clarke describes the experiences of himself and his colleagues in the battles around the Khe Sanh Combat base in 1968, during the Vietnam War. He looks at the decision-making at multiple levels surrounding the battle, which he judges to have been a bloody tactical victory and a strategic defeat for the United States.
