Those of you who fought in Nam... did you ever have a buddy disappear in a firefight but his body was never found? Did you ever think you had the enemy cornered when they suddenly disappeared? Did you ever sweep a village clean, and then have the VC suddenly appear where they weren't before?Most of you know what I'm talking about. But most of you might not know that these disappearances - including your buddy's body - were just the enemy trying to mess with your head.This paperback book combines the research and case histories of some of our bravest of the brave Tunnel Rats. The author digs into the details of how they survived fighting through a system of underground passageways some of which were three levels deep and stretched up to 100 miles in length! A vast network of tunnels that was virtually under your feet!Not many of you would believe that back at your base of security eight feet down under your hooch the enemy could be resting in his coffin-sized hole reading in the flickering light of a bottle lamp. But those bases that were over-run in the middle of the night by their suicide squads might wonder how the hell all of those crazies got through their perimeter defenses without triggering a firefight. Readers have asked for more tunnel stories and this book brings them all together. Enjoy them but when the lead gets to flying in those blacked out tunnels, wear your flak jacket and keep a low profile. Fear not, usually good guys always win...what's so freaking amazing is how they did it!
