About This Item
Osceola, Wisconsin, U.S.A.: Zenith Press, 2006. New book, 288 pages. In early 1967 Marine Corps recruits from Minneapolis-St. Paul and the outlying areas or Minnesota opened their mail boxes to find a letter from the recruiting officer. Sponsored by the Minnesotta Twins Baseball Team, and sworn in on TV at a pre-game ceremony, the Twins Platoon would be sprinkled across the length and breadth of the Marine Corps operating areas of I Corps, the northernmost part of the Republic of Vietnam. From Da Nang to the DMZ, Khe Sanh and Hue City were just a few of the hot spots they encountered as the 1968 Tet Offensive rolled across the county and the Marines of I Corps experienced some of the toughest combat of the entire war.. Hard Cover. As New/As New. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
