Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I have known of the great work of Norm Hatch for many years. He was the right man in the right place at the right time...and he still is. I worked most of my USMC career with writers/photographers and eventually for a "Mr" Norm Hatch (Major, USMCR, Retired) in DoD audio-visual news for about 18 months before retiring for civilian life. I especially admire the way Jones and he handle the great responsibilities explained in the book: with humility despite tremendous responsibility by a then-young, relatively inexperienced sergeant in his first combat. Strongly recommend this great book to everyone who appreciates American History.
