Examples of the many perspectives based on real-life characters include: Hu, a VC "informant" whose false information led the Rangers straight into the jaws of a ferocious ambush; General Tanh, the COSVN commander; Major Nguyen Hiep, the 52d Ranger Commander; and Ranger POWs later returned by the North.

In a world that often whispers, sometimes there is nothing else for us to do but listen. My most recent whispers, as faint as they may have been, led me to write this book, one that is more or less about another book, but so much more. Many successful authors stress the need for the first chapter to be alluring enough to catch the listener's attention. Then they say, create an interesting plot and then a twist. Both should be systematically interwoven throughout.
