Highlights
Quality
Just like his ww2 books this is a well written follow on with the same style and enjoyment
Liked it but a bit too repetitive with the whole oh look yet another incompetent officer
Lot of true facts mixed in with the story
Would have like to of seen some contact with the other country forces committed in korea 19501953
Shipping
The book as all the other books by grasso was fast moving and mostly authentic
Packaging/appearance
Goes out of the way to criticize general macarthur
