In the Vietnam War, Sergeant Mars speaks to helicopters. Captain Daddy thinks himself a soldier when he is just a village parson. Peepsite believes he can survive combat if he dreams himself away from it. The Bee escapes suicide and believes that proves he will live forever. Waldo thinks every life lost in the company is his personal failure as an artilleryman and he refuses to die too soon.
When a helicopter shrieks out of the night sky, crashing in enemy country, war-battered artillery scout Waldo Daugherty, Sergeant Mars and a shattered half company of infantrymen shove into murderous Viet Cong Valley to save survivors at the risk of their own lives. Each soldier slogs through the jungle adrift in his own bizarre fantasy that he desperately hopes means survival in this place of death and terror. But they must make a grim fight against a dogged and bitter enemy in a rain-dripping jungle that tests all their dreams.
The and new paperback versions are the 25th Anniversary Revised Edition.

I read this book a long time ago. I was a PFC in the 82nd. I passed it around to my buddies as I criss crossed the Army. As usual, I lost it. But the beginning, when Mars hears the screaming of the downed Chopper, always stuck with me. I came to that full understanding in Baghdad. There is a different resonance to an explosion when it takes a life. Maybe there is a sub sonic under current of man screams as they die that mixes with the screech of mettle and the boom of the explosion.Either way it has always stuck with me. I know when the boom is OK and when it echos the death and destruction of a fellow Soldier.
Awesome book. Glad I found it on Kindle
