In three straight years he was a paratrooper, an army seaman, and a LRRP - and he lived to tell about it. As an FNG paratrooper in the 173d Airborne, John Leppelman made that unit's only combat jump in Vietnam. Then he spent months in fruitless search of the enemy, watching as his buddies died because of poor leadership and lousy weapons. Often it seemed the only way out of the carnage in the central highlands was in a body bag.

But Leppelman did get out, transferring first to the army's riverboats and then the all-volunteer Rangers, one of the ballsiest units in the war. In three tours of duty, that ended only when malaria forced him back to the States, Leppelman saw the war as few others did, a Vietnam that many American boys didn't live to tell about, but whose valor and sacrifice survive in this book.

I bought this without reading the fine print. I read the book in the 90s and then had the audio book on cassette in the mid 2000s. I didn’t realize I was getting the abridged version. This is a decent preview of the actual book but it’s disjointed and choppy if you know the whole story.

Read the full book.

I liked the details provided about the reality about the Vietnam War as a soldier.

Intriguing & Exciting.

The written book is much more interesting. The Audible should go on for about 20 hours to cover the written version. Very disappointed.

This is a fantastic book, having read it a few times years before. Wanting to try the audible version, i was saddened to find they left out huge amounts from the printed version. Do yourselves a favor and read the book. Audible version was done well, narrator has a great voice - but they left out way to much of the story.

Great book, sadly audible version is abridged

John Leppelman’s book is a great story. I have read it several times. It was very well performed by Scott Sowers. It fails in that it was way too condensed. So much of the detail that Mr. Leppelman included in his memoir was left out. Two hours does not do this book justice. I enjoyed what I heard but having read the paper pages, and knowing that so much was omitted leaves me disappointed. I wish they would do an unabridged version.

Way too abridged
