The intelligence estimate says thirty enemy soldiers. From the helicopter, Dolan counts smoke from three separate cooking fires, spaced at tactical intervals. The estimate is wrong by a factor of four. The mission is simple. Get in. Watch. Get out. Do not fire a shot. Do not leave a trace.

What follows is ten days of combat, loss, and the brutal education of a young officer who discovers that command is not control — it is carrying what cannot be set down.

Six men. Five days. One rule: the enemy never knows you were there. Vietnam, 1968. Staff Sergeant Dolan Mast leads a six-man Long Range Reconnaissance Patrol into the Dak Kram valley to observe an NVA supply cache and report what he finds. The intelligence estimate says thirty enemy soldiers. From the helicopter, Dolan counts smoke from three separate cooking fires, spaced at tactical intervals. The estimate is wrong by a factor of four. The mission is simple. Get in. Watch. Get out. Do not fire a shot. Do not leave a trace. Spend five days lying in the dirt forty meters from a hundred and ...

Kontum Province, November 1967. Eleven Americans. Thirty-two Montagnard strikers. One hundred and twenty-eight square kilometers of jungle. No reinforcements coming. Sergeant Caulfield runs a Special Forces camp on the Cambodian border — what the Army calls an economy-of-force mission: hold the ground with the minimum, accept the risk. His area of responsibility is a red rectangle on acetate. Inside it, an NVA regiment is moving.

February 1968. A helicopter goes down over the Vietnamese jungle. Sergeant Marcus Coleman survives the crash, the fire, and the capture. He does not survive it unchanged. They take his weapon. They take his dog tags. They take the photograph of his three-year-old daughter from his wallet and put it in a stranger's pocket. For five years, Marcus endures bamboo cages, concrete cells, and the ropes of the Hanoi Hilton. He is starved, beaten, and ordered to read propaganda into a microphone. He refuses. They break him. He refuses again. The only thing that keeps him alive is a decision he makes...

Twenty-six men walked into the jungle. Twenty-one walked out. Central Highlands, Vietnam. November 1967. Lieutenant Daniel Elias leads his platoon on a routine five-day mission to secure a remote village. The intelligence says the area is quiet. The intelligence is wrong. What follows is ten days of combat, loss, and the brutal education of a young officer who discovers that command is not control — it is carrying what cannot be set down. A compass that belongs to a wounded point man. A bottle of hot sauce from a dead squad leader's wife. A three-sentence letter from a father who never ...
