I just finished
reading his new book, "Steel My Soldiers' Hearts". Absolutely the BEST accounting of what combat in the Mekong Delta was all about. Like I've said before, I don't particularly agree with a lot of what "Hack" has to say about a lot of subjects. But, I'll NEVER deny the fact he IS one of the BEST battle field CO's this country EVER had. He did an OUTSTANDING job with this book.
The movie rights to the book have been bought and the movie is in the planning stages.
