Phantom Warriors: Book 2 by Gary Linderer
MORE GRIPING, NO-HOLDS-BARED LRP ACOUNTSFROM THE FRONT LINES
During the Vietnam War, few combat operations were more dangerous than LRP/Ranger missions. Vastly outnumbered, the patrols faced overwhelming odds as they fought to carry out their missions, from gathering intelligence, acting as hunter/killer teams, or engaging in infamous Parakeet flights- actions in which teams were dropped into enemy areas and expected to develop the situation.
PHANTOM WARIORS I presents heart-pounding, edge-of-your-seat stories from individuals and teams. These elite warriors relive sudden deadly firefights, prolonged gun battles with large enemy forces, desperate attempts to help fallen comrades, and the sheer hell of bloody, no-quarter combat. The LRP accounts here are a testament to the courage, guts, daring, and sacrifice of the men who willingly faced death every day of their lives in Vietnam.
