Matterhorn

Fire Support Base MATTERHORN: there is no more isolated outpost of America's increasingly desperate war in Vietnam. Second Lieutenant Waino Mellas, 21 years old and just a few days into his 13-month tour, has barely arrived at MATTERHORN before Bravo Company is sent deep in-country in pursuit of a North Vietnamese Army unit of unknown size. Beyond the relative safety of the perimeter wire, Mellas will face disease, starvation, leeches, tigers and an almost invisible enemy. 'I came close to reading it in one sitting... I was living and dying in Vietnam with Bravo Company' The Sunday Times.
