Xin Loi, Viet Nam: Thirty-One Months of War: A Soldier's Memoir Mass market paperbound - 2005
by Al Sever
All the hell, horror, and heroism of helicopter gunship combat above the jungles of Vietnam is captured in this gritty, gut-wrenching, firsthand account by a veteran of nearly all the war's major campaigns.
First line
Anthracite coal country, hard coal and hard times, Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania, is where I'm from.
From the jacket flap
No one in Vietnam had to tell door gunner and gunship crew chief Al Sever that the odds didn't look good. He volunteered for the job well aware that hanging out of slow-moving choppers over hot LZs blazing with enemy fire was not conducive to a long life. But that wasn't going to stop Specialist Sever.
From Da Nang to Cu Chi and the Mekong Delta, Sever spent thirty-one months in Vietnam, fighting in eleven of the war's sixteen campaigns. Every morning when his gunship lifted off, often to the clacking and muzzle flashes of AK-47s hidden in the dawn fog, Sever knew he might not return. This raw, gritty, gut-wrenching firsthand account of American boys fighting and dying in Vietnam captures all the hell, horror, and heroism of that tragic war.
