Book Reviews of Dog Tags of Courage: The Turmoil of War and the Rewards of Companionship

Book Review: "Dog Tags" is a Must Read!
Summary: 5 Stars

This book is a great read for many reasons. The reader is given an introduction to the Vietnam War and the US Army through the eyes of a 19 year-old who has just arrived in Vietnam after basic training. His tour of duty is often humorous with moments of shock and horror mixed in. The descriptions of combat and companionship with the author's scout dog Clipper will set you on a rollar coaster ride of emotions. I guarantee portions of this book will make you cry. Kudos to John Burnam for writing such a fabulous book.
