“These essays offer a remarkable look into almost the full range of Vietnam-era military experience—from harrowing danger and selfless heroism to desk-bound tedium, from pride in serving to disillusionment with the mission and the way it was conducted. It enriches the entire Dartmouth community to have these stories told.”—Morton Kondracke
“This is a haunting and welcome collection. It shows readers the combat experience of a generation of Dartmouth veterans — part of a long, unbroken line extending from the Revolution to the current day.”—Nathaniel Fick, ’99
“This is a valuable chronicle of a decade of service by Dartmouth students and graduates. In sum, 157 members of the class of 1964 served: 55 contributed essays, 35 served in Vietnam, and 2 died in service. A final essay by a class of 2015 veteran who served in Iraq provides a link to Dartmouth's sustained support for the military. . . . Recommended.” —Choice
