It puts you right inside the mind of a nineteen year old as he climbs into a chopper on day one and gets delivered into the middle of a frightening and wild war.The story is honest, entertaining, often 'laugh out loud' funny, and a fresh look into the intensity of the many battles of the A Shau Valley.
