Story
In this frank, engaging memoir, Captain Chamberlain chronicles the missions, personal courage and sacrifice of the Marines he was privileged to command; painfully recalls the unspeakable order he and his Marines were forced to obey; and the cover-up which followed. Nearly four decades later, Captain Chamberlain makes right what was wrong; brings closure to the family of a fallen and abandoned warrior; and attempts to put to rest the guilt which plagued his military career and life.

Story
Among the best books ever written about men in combat, The Killing Zone tells the story of the platoon of Delta One-six, capturing what it meant to face lethal danger, to follow orders, and to search for the conviction and then the hope that this war was worth the sacrifice. The book includes a new chapter on what happened to the platoon members when they came home.

Narrator is unlistenable

This seemed to be the making of a great book. The narrator’s cadence and over annunciation of every syllable took me right out of it.
I tried 3 times but just can’t !!!!!
Too bad I was hoping for better .

Story
Good to Go is Constance's powerful, firsthand account of his three tours of duty as a member of America's most elite, razor-sharp stealth fighting force. It is a breathtaking memoir of harrowing missions and covert special-ops - from the floodplains of the Mekong Delta to the beaches of the South China Sea - that places the listener in the center of bloody ambushes and devastating firefights. But Constance's extraordinary adventure goes even farther - beyond 'Nam.

Amazing well told story!!!!!
Reviewed: 02-04-21
Narrating by Todd McLaren is one of the few people they can really bring a story to life and hold your attention for 15+ hours. Although a great book and very entertaining the writers use of the words bullets and guns kind of took me out of it. Most military personnel would have use the terms weapons or ammo.
