SynopsisThe explosive true story of Sergeant Carlos Hathcock, a legendary Marine sniper in the Vietnam War. There have been many Marines. There have been many marksmen. But there has only been one Sergeant Carlos Hathcock. He stalked the Viet Cong behind enemy lines--on their own ground. And each time, he emerged from the jungle having done his duty. His record is one of the finest in military history, with ninety-three confirmed kills. This is the story of a simple man who endured incredible dangers and hardships for his country and his Corps. These are the missions that have made Carlos Hathcock a legend in the brotherhood of Marines. They are exciting, powerful, chilling--and all true.

  • Great Book

    Just as Great as “American Sniper” by Chris Kyle. But this one is the old school version. Amazing what those men could do and what they endured. There should be a movie about the life of White Feather also!

    This and Volume 2 are great reads. I was a grunt and most of our actions were from NVA snipers. These men are amazing.
