I have read Larry Gwins book, Baptism, which follows his one year tour of duty, including details of the battle at LZ X-Ray and the ambush at LZ Albany.

Outstanding book

I waited 10 years to read your book. Thank you, Mr. Gwin. So much I want to say but after all these years I am still not quite ready. I have your off-set manual typed letter still neatly in the small postage box that accompany my brother's personal belongings. I was eight years old. SP4 Danny E. Carlton 20, Greenfield, Tennessee was at X-Ray then on to Albany. 2/7, Alpha Company, 1st Platoon. He was an American Hero. 17Nov1965, My dear Danny was among that horrid stench.
