Vietnam #2: Sharpshooter

About this book

Four best friends. Four ways to serve their country. Morris Ivan Rudi and Beck are best friends for life. So when Rudi is drafted into the Vietnam War the other teens sign up too. Though they each serve in a different branch of the U.S. military they are fighting the war together-and fighting to come home together. Ivan is by far the most gung ho about service. He comes from a long line of servicemen and he grew up hearing his fathers stories of glory and heroism in World War II. In fact Ivan has long suspected that the only way to earn his fathers respect is to join the U.S. Army. Trained as a sniper Ivan proves to be very good at his job. But Vietnam is not the war he was expecting. And glory and heroism do not come easily in the jungle. Ivan may get out of Vietnam alive. But will he get out of Vietnam intact?
