"Cannon Fodder: Growing Up For Vietnam"...

[roger]

"Cannon Fodder: Growing Up For Vietnam"...

has been read by more Vietnam veterans than any book on the war...
combined.

Some reviews:

"Cannon Fodder is a mixture of brilliance, a reflection of cerebral
intelIect... and some good old fashion American adventure... every
veteran who served in Vietnam -- from pilot to grunt -- becomes a hero
in Coleman's book... which has made him a permanent fixture in the
history of the Vietnam War. I couldn't put it down. Not one aspect of
the G.I. experience in Vietnam was left out."

Another:

Coleman makes us think about the reality of not just the war, but
about who we are as Americans, what we do... to ourselves and each
other... and how important it is to
always be involved in a project or mission that is worthwhile.
Coleman hits the nail squarely on the head. He calls a spade a spade.
