From the rear cover
Phil Jennings has something to say, namely that the historical record, as selectively compiled and presented by the political Left, has done a terrible disservice to the hundreds of thousands of men who fought in The Vietnam War. With great passion, an unapologetic love of his country, and drum roll, please the truth to support his case Captain Jennings walks us through this tragic struggle, the war America never lost, but wasn t allowed to win, either.
L. Brent Bozell III, nationally syndicated columnist and president of the Media Research Center
When I first met Jennings at Camp Lejeune in the 1960s, he told me his ambition was to become the world s first successful right-wing folk singer. He failed miserably at that, but yet, over the last 40 years, he has managed to channel his energies toward successfully defeating political correctness wherever he finds it. This book debunks so many of what our generation s warriors know to be The Myths of Vietnam that it needs to be required reading. Lance Corporal Diogenes, you may extinguish your lamp. Our generation has found an honest man.
Major General Larry S. Taylor USMCR (retired), former Commanding General, 4th Marine Aircraft Wing
In the past several decades, no historical subject has been so grievously distorted by the politically correct as the Vietnam War. Whereas most of the war s chroniclers objected to American involvement at the time, Phillip Jennings was in Vietnam fighting the war, and like most veterans he disputes the antiwar narrative that has dominated the publishing world. His account skillfully weaves together a wealth of historical facts that blow apart the myths handed down by professors and journalists.
