I finished 'Dispatches' by Michael Herr 2 weeks ago, the most stolen from & conceptualized for film, book about the Vietnam war.
Full Metal Jacket, Platoon, Apocalypse Now... each one its own take on that book. Herr's poetic prose is so immitated its crazy
In a different way every bit as insightful into the true & human cost of war as 'About Face' by Col. David Hackworth.
