I have tried to understand how soldiers deal with the horrors of death and war. As this centers on Vietnam War, I'm interested in it.

Fantastic review. I do read books on war here and there, but I am not sure this is a good book for me. I will pass on this one

A book about the horrors of the Vietnam War sounds intriguing and I like that it follows more than one character. I think those interested in historical pieces will enjoy this. Thanks for the informative review.

This seems to be a book that offers a different vision from the usual war-related stories, addressing sensitive aspects faced by soldiers. However, the premise of this book did not capture my attention, so I'll pass on this one. Thank you for offering such an honest review.

This sounds like a well-written novel but I have a problem with its gory aspects. I think I'll pass on this one. Great review.

the REMF, Hurry Up and Wait by Ray Dyer seems to be heart-wrenching book. I've always wanted to read a book on Vietnam War. Since this book narrates an up-close and personal encounter of the horrors of the war, I am intrigued. Looking forward to reading it. Congrats on BOTD!

War stories are ever thrilling. Whenever one reads such books, there must exist an imagery that correlates with real life experience. These books are ever motivating. That's why I can read a 300 page book in only a few days. Thank you for such a well done review.

This book seems to portray the horrors of the Vietnam War with a lot of details about the soldiers' lives, traumas, and relationships too. It is not for me, congrats on BOTD to the author! Thanks for the review!

All is fair in love and war! Or is it? This saying is what got me the most in the review. This book tells of the lives of soldiers that fought in the Vietnam war. What comes after the horrors of war? I'll pick it up to find out.

From a sampling, this seems like an interesting historical fiction novel about the soldiers that were stationed in Rocket City during the Vietnam War. The book delves into the horrors that they had to go through during the war. It might be worth a second look. Well done.
