My grandfather is going through a tough time lately. The early stages of Alzheimer's also (finally) prompted the doctor to diagnose him with PTSD from the Vietnam War. He very rarely talks about what happened, and when he does share he is cryptic, hiding the truth behind jokes. Reading this book really helped me to understand what he is going through, even decades after the war is over.

Overall, it was a very well written piece of non-fiction. I never felt like the truth was stretched. There was little to no author bias. Klein kept it to the facts while maintaining a comprehensive story-line.
