Absolution, Charlie Company, 3rd Battalion, 22nd Infantry

This memoir recounts the Vietnam War as the author lived it with Charlie Company of the 22nd Infantry's 3rd Battalion. It describes the emotions of soldiers in combat with unvarnished honesty and argues against the common, unfair picture of the Vietnam veteran as a figure of shame. Part horror story, part love story, it reflects on the brutality of war alongside the courage of those who fought it.
