In what is sure to become a classic, Boys of '67 follows the careers of a group of young second lieutenants from their baptism of fire in Vietnam, through the Cold War, and to the current insurgency in Iraq. In Vietnam, they experienced the Tet Offensive, the siege at Khe Sanh, and the 1972 Easter Offensive. They went on to serve eyeball-to-eyeball with North Koreans in the DMZ, and later they participated in the 1983 invasion of Grenada, operations in Beirut, and Desert Storm. Some would never make it out of Vietnam alive. Some would be crippled by wounds. All would fight like tigers, and one would rise to the very top, commanding the Marine Corps they all loved.Jones, Charles is the author of 'Boys of '67 From Vietnam to Iraq, The Extraordinary Story of A Few Good Men', published 2006 under ISBN 9780811701631 and ISBN 0811701638.
