Descriere magazin:
Considered one of the all time classic memoirs of combat during the Vietnam War, Guns Up! is now updated. Only an 18-year-old Marine at the height of the bloody offensive, the author quickly realized the statistic of the short life expectancy of a machine gunner. This updated edition reveals what happened to the heroes of the 5th Marines and includes a new photo insert. THIS GUT-WRENCHING FIRSTHAND ACCOUNT OF THE WAR IS A CLASSIC IN THE ANNALS OF VIETNAM LITERATURE. Guns up was the battle cry that sent machine gunners racing forward with their M60s to mow down the enemy, hoping that this wasn\'t the day they would meet their deaths. Marine Johnnie Clark heard that the life expectancy of a machine gunner in Vietnam was seven to ten seconds after a firefight began. Johnnie was only eighteen when he got there, at the height of the bloody Tet Offensive at Hue, and he quickly realized the grim statistic held a chilling truth. The Marines who fought and bled and died were ordinary men, many still teenagers, but the selfless bravery they showed day after day in a nightmarish jungle war made them true heroes. This new edition of Guns Up , filled with photographs and updated information about those harrowing battles, also contains the real names of these extraordinary warriors and details of their lives after the war. The book\'s continuing success is a tribute to the raw courage and sacrifice of the United States Marines.
