I bought this for the library at my school. The series stays checked out all the time. Once they read the first one, they come back for the others. I have a waiting list, and we have more than one copy of each book.

This was a very good read. They really portray the life of a soldier in Vietnam well and set the scenery and background noise. This all adds up and really allows the reader to envision what it feels and sounds like during the Vietnam Conflict. I would recommend this book to young adults and over.

Like always Chris lynch writes yet another great book. But he has too cool it with the cliff hangers. Please I can't take the suspense. But definitely better than the first.

This is a very good book. It has a lot of action and is realistic. I liked it andI am reading the next one

Read it with my son.. Good read even for an adult. Gave an accurate picture of a war specifically Vietnam n

My son ordered this book, and read it in a day. He enjoys historical fiction, and this series has captured his attention. He enjoys finding connections in each boys' stories.

I like this book because it is exciting. I think it is a good book and people who want to read about the Vietnam war should read this one. I did this book for my book project.

Exciting and dramatic. Easy to read. My 13 year old is very interested in the armed services and found it very interesting. He is continuing on with the entire series.
