Highlights
Quality
I enjoyed this book as much as i enjoyed with the old breed by eugene sledge
Fantastic first hand account of combat in the pacific right up there with with the old breed
On par with eugene sledges with the old breed
Had read with the old breed and loved it wanted read another angle from other marines and it matched up
Packaging/appearance
Burgin was shot at and barely missed many times with bullet holes in his clothes
Competitiveness
A great read for after youve watched the mini series the pacific
