Why read it?
1 author picked Death in the A Shau Valley as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
An excellent first-person account of being an LRRP in a unit that acted as the eyes and ears of the 101st Airborne Division. Most of his patrols were in the NVA ruled A Shau Valley. Usually outgunned, outmanned, and unsupported, Chambers and his LRRP team performed hundreds of courageous missions. This is a “boots on the ground” story by a real warrior.
From Michael's list on long range reconnaissance patrols and Rangers In The Vietnam War.
