STRENGTH AND HONOR

Revisado: 01-17-24

I thought that this was well written. I gave it a EXCELLENT. It shows that there are people out there that are willing to put their party associations aside and stand up for the truth for the sake of the country. Trump was and is a DISGRACE! I thank the author for being honest in a time of turmoil and putting it on the line inspite of the ramifications that she had to face.

Very flat

Revisado: 09-08-23

It was a very flat story. There was really not too much exciting about it. Nothing really stood out in this book. It was more or less just something to read about a bad time in American history.

Magnificent

Revisado: 07-07-23

I had heard of Robin Knowles prior to the book. However, I had never really read about his exports. I was in Vietnam from 1966/1967. I was in Guam 1973 when the war ended. I was in Thailand in 1975 when Vietnam fell to the communist. This was somewhat of a history lesson to make hearing it from general Olfs. Truly, truly a great historical book. God bless him.

Exceptional, history, lesson

Revisado: 03-06-23

I read this book, really not knowing what to expect. This was just not about General Patton, it was about a trip through history, especially World War II. And I did cover a lot of the key players during the war, and what happened to them after the war. It was very saddening when reading how the Russians came into Germany and raped, assaulted, and just basically went crazy with revenge on the German females that were left behind. Very, very sad. However, this was war and there are so many things that go on in the world that are in just horrible. Overall, I learned quite a bit from this book, and I give it five stars!

Man, oh Man

This was good reading almost in the first person. I take my hats off to all the men that flew and lost friends day after day in some of the most horrible ways.

A love Story

Revisado: 01-26-23

I served in the Air force going to Viet Nam (66-67.) I was on Guam (71-73) during the bombing that brought the "Peace with honor." play on words!! I was in Thailand in 1975 when Viet Nam fell. Needless to say this book brought back memories. I must say that the way it was written seemed like a Love story for a person hat had loved and lost and how he attempted to make things right again with his past. I really enjoyed the book in that along with his personal story, giving a view of the suffering that went on during that time in Cambodia. It was fascinating that it all came full circle when he was able to take her ashes back to her home, giving them back to the wind and land from whence she came. Truly a Love Story. EXCELLENT !!!

Refections of days gone by

Revisado: 12-28-22

I was stationed in Viet Nam from 66/67. I was at Tan Son Khnut during my tour there. I was also a member of the 377th Air Police Squadron while there. Many of the places that were spoken about in the book I had been to (good and bad.) I also worked with the 716th Military Police there. I had to laugh about 100 P alley and some of the things that went on there. It was funny in that all the off limits places were the best places to go. I guess that when you are young, one does a multitude of interesting things in that you believe that you are invincible. It was very good reading, It really told the story of Saigon and the surrounding area from the military police view.. A lot of very good men at a very bad time! Very well done.

Very informative

Revisado: 10-02-22

I found this book very, very interesting. It was very down to earth about a female that enjoys what she does. I learned quite a bit about the industry and how it works in regards to the people that work in it along with the people that feel it. She was very, very candid about her way of life and the things that she has done. I applaud her for being who she is and enjoy the ways of her life. It’s just a job!

The real deal

Revisado: 09-19-22

As a veteran of Vietnam, I found the story very, very insightful and realistic. Although I was not out in the bush as were many, I did see Many of the horrors that this book spoke to. Vietnam as with this author makes a man out of a boy. It’s just such a pity that’s so many men did not come back. This was a great book.

Excellent

Revisado: 09-17-22

This was one of the best books I have read about individual in Vietnam. This speaks to the fortitude of all the individuals that served during the conflict. It also speaks to the never die attitude of the individual. I salute Carlos Hathcock!
