Book Reviews of Death in the Jungle

Book Review: Go with the Seals in the Vietnam war
Summary: 4 Stars

The author is a brave soldier. Enlisting in the SEALS is the bottom of his courage. His engagement in the ambushes, the numerous missions of harassment, against the VCs are impressive. The man has a very acute sense of humour and likes sharing his wisdom about the sense of the war.

Brave soldiers, heroes, nice men ; a good book on the Vietnam war even though I preferred "Sog: The Secret Wars of America's Commandos in Vietnam" or "Good to Go: The Life and Times of a Decorated Member of the U.S. Navy's Elite Seal Team Two" by Harry Constance.

Summary of Death in the Jungle

SNAKES, VIPERS, CROCS, SHARKS, AND THE VC
With 257 combat missions in Vietnam under his belt, Gary Smith is a living witness to the realities of Naval Special Warfare. He worked with some of the toughest and most highly motivated men in the world, executing missions in the murderous terrain of Rung Sat Special Zone and Dung Island. The key to their success: go where no ordinary soldier would go and no VC would expect them.
Though death reigned as king in the jungles of Vietnam, Gary Smith considered it a privilege and an honor to serve under the officers and with the men of Underwater Demolition Team Twelve and SEAL Team 1. Because he and his teammates, trained to the max, gave each other the courage to attain the unattainable . . . .
