Many thanks for taking time to write comments about the book. Rick Newman was a gifted colleague. We worked well together. The book was both a joy to write and an arduous effort to research and assemble. We had to get an extension from Random House as both of us were covering the Iraq war - me for CNN, Rick for US News & WR. Vietnam was one helluva war - it's a wonder any of us are still alive - Don Shepperd
I just finished the book. It is a great tribute to our Military men, women, and thier families. I will be giving this book to my son as soon as he is old enough (now 4) as these heroic stories are truly amazing and deserved to be passed down to future generations.
@mjadamczyk - thanks for your comments on Bury Us Upside Down - it was a "joy" to write - sort of - actually one heck of a lot of work, but worth it - Don Shepperd co-author with Rick Newman
@Bbendfender - I hope you finished the book and enjoyed the remainder - this was quite a group of men both to fly with and write about - Don Shepperd co-author with Rick Newman
