Tales From The 'Nam: An Infantryman's Journey

Dave Nicholson earnestly wanted to fight in Vietnam following his graduation from college in 1968. When the Army assigned him to be a finance clerk, his first battle was to fight to be an infantryman. Assigned to Lonely Platoon, he chose to be a point man, one of the most dangerous positions for combat troops. And when the author became point man, that's when the real battles began! The scrappy Nicholson presents one soldier's perspective of being a grunt as he makes his way through the harsh, unforgiving jungles of Vietnam, fights the North Vietnamese Army in numerous battles, loses buddies, is wounded, and returns to a scene of death and destruction. This is not fiction! It s a real-life, revealing insight to the Vietnam war by one brave and lucky soldier.
