Guns Up!
ISBN: 0553714821
Category: Fiction, Contemporary, Historical
Keywords: Vietnam, Tet Offensive, Marines, Guns
Author: Johnnie M. Clark
Publisher: Random House Audio
Length: 1 hour and 58 min.

Description
This gut-wrenching firsthand account of the war is a classic in the annals of Vietnam literature. "Guns Up!" was the battle cry that sent machine gunners racing forward with their M60s to mow down the enemy, hoping that this wasn't the day they would meet their deaths. Marine Johnnie Clark heard that the life expectancy of a machine gunner in Vietnam was seven to 10 seconds after a firefight began. Johnnie was only 17 when he got there, at the height of the bloody Tet Offensive at Hue, and he quickly realized the grim statistic held a chilling truth. The Marines who fought and bled and died were ordinary men, many still teenagers, but the selfless bravery they showed day after day in a nightmarish jungle war made them true heroes. Guns Up! contains updated information about those harrowing battles. It is a tribute to the raw courage and sacrifice of the United States Marines.

Keywords: General Douglas MacArthur, Marines, Korean War, A Corps Novel, Retreat, Hell
Author: W.E.B. Griffin
Publisher: Penguin Audiobooks
Length: 5 hours and 48 min.

Description
It is the fall of 1950. The Marines have made a pivotal breakthrough at Inchon, but a roller coaster awaits them. The bit in his teeth, Douglas MacArthur surges across the 38th parallel toward the Yalu River, only to encounter the Chinese in full force, who drive him back in turn. Back and forth, the bloody tides of war shift, and swept along with them are Captain Ken McCoy and Master Gunner Ernie Zimmerman, caught in the fight of their lives; Brigadier General Fleming Pickering, working desperately to mediate the escalating battle between MacArthur and Truman; and Pickering's daredevil pilot son, Malcolm, lost somewhere behind enemy lines, and maybe lost forever.
