Description

"What Stephen Ambrose did for Easy Company, 506th Parachute Infantry in Band of Brothers, Glass does for Charlie Company, 1st Marines in this excellent, powerful book." -- John C. McManus, author of Alamo in the Ardennes and The Deadly Brotherhood

Thursday, October 12, 1967, marked a fateful day for Marine Lance Corporal Kevin Cahill and Charlie Company, First Battalion, First Marines, First Marine Division. Deep in the dense Hai Lang National Forest of South Vietnam, Cahill led his unit of 166 Marines on a mission to locate and eliminate North Vietnamese Army forces.

Despite Cahill's reservations about the ominous trail they followed, orders were orders. Little did they know, they were walking into a deadly trap. As Cahill stepped toward a small knoll, he walked straight into enemy fire, triggering a devastating ambush.

What was meant to be a search and destroy mission turned into a desperate fight for survival. Surrounded and outnumbered by over two thousand NVA soldiers, Charlie Company found themselves on the brink of annihilation in the unforgiving jungle terrain.

"Captures the chaos and ferocity of infantry combat, and shows that little has changed from the pass at Thermopylae, to the jungles of Vietnam and the streets of Iraq." -- Nathaniel Fick, New York Times bestselling author of One Bullet Away
