The 50th anniversary edition of Ronald Glasser's classic, with a new foreword by Lieutenant General H.R. McMaster. In this gripping account,
Glasser offers an unparalleled description of the horror endured daily
by those on the front lines. “The best book to come out of Vietnam.”
David Mamet
Assigned to Zama, an Army hospital in Japan in September 1968, Glasser
arrived as a pediatrician in the U.S. Army Medical Corps to care for the
children of officers and high-ranking government officials. The
hospital's main mission, however, was to support the war and care for
the wounded. “They all came through the hospitals of Japan … the chopper
pilots and the RTO's, the forward observers, the cooks, the medics and
the sergeants... the heroes and the ones under military arrest, the drug
addicts and the killers.” At Zama, an average of six to eight thousand
patients were attended to per month, and the death and suffering were
staggering. The soldiers counted their days by the length of their
tour—one year, or 365 days—and they knew, down to the day, how much time
they had left. Glasser tells their stories—of lives shockingly
interrupted by the tragedies of war—with moving, humane eloquence.
