Brave Men

Colonel David H. Hackworth's explosive battlefield chronicle of the real wars in Korea and Vietnam comes to you straight from the pen of America's most decorated living soldier. Condensed from his blockbuster "New York Times" bestseller, "About Face, BRAVE MEN" vividly recalls Colonel Hackworth's firsthand experiences as an infantry leader. From the steep, razor-backed hills and bone-chilling cold of Korea to the steamy guerilla-infested jungles of Vietnam, Hackworth's wars were fought in the chaos of close combat. Here is Hackworth himself, jumping onto tanks to fire .50 caliber guns when and inexperienced tank battalion is paralyzed in combat...charging through the smoke of frag grenades to land in front of the enemy, taking prisoners at bayonet point, with an empty rifle...revealing the emotions of combat in the thick of battle, witnessing heroism of the highest order.
