The book has also just been released as an Audio Book, if you have read this book through Kindle Unlimited, it would be a rewarding experience to hear it being read. You also get a special rate to purchase it as an Audio Book. Vietnam veterans from around the country have contacted me and have had positive things to say about the book. It has been rated #1 quite a few times and has spent a loot of time being rated in the Top 10 on Amazon in the Vietnam War category. The positive response to the book has been very satisfying and is very much appreciated.
I joined the Army a few days after my 18th birthday, 1967.This book is my story of 3 years of military duty during the Vietnam war. 1 year of training, 1 year as an infantry squad leader in Vietnam and 1 year active duty after Vietnam. This is not a book about endless combat. It's about a teenage Sgt. trying to do the right thing under impossible conditions. Vietnam wears you down, it burns you out and it's always with you, even 54 years later. It's there, just below the surface. That's what this book is about. F Troop 8th Cav, Blue Ghost, Hill 29, Vietnam. I am very proud to be a Blue Ghost.
Thanks, Gareth B. Style

Very personal

Amazing story. Loved every minute of it. Wish it was read by someone and not auto voice.

Enlightening

Though the narration is not bad, It could be improved.

The book itself is very good. I found the personal stories of Mr. Styles service helped me to better understand the Vietnam War. Well written.

Irritation AI commentary

It would have been much better if the narration was a bit more lively. Monotone presentation was annoying and words were mispronounced.

Chronicle of story flowed well.

I think the narrative could be better if done by the author vs virtual voice. Thanks for sharing your story I really enjoyed it.

Great book and great stories

The AI narration needs some work. Doesn’t pronounce some words correctly and doesn’t convey military jargon well.
