A Sniper In The Arizona

In 1967, death was the constant companion of the Marines of Hotel Company, 2/5, as they patrolled the paddy dikes, mud, and mountains of the Arizona Territory southwest of Da Nang.  But the men of Hotel Company were lean, fighting Marines who had survived the carnage of Operation Tuscaloosa.  Hotel's grunts walked over the enemy, not around him.  This book describes the daily, dangerous life of a soldier fighting in a country where the enemy was frequently indistinguishable from the allies.
