"Vietnam; Honor and Sacrifice," is a dramatic, action packed, gut wrenching story that will allow readers to feel they are in the line of fire. Tom Kenrude, has always wanted to be a doctor. But as the war in Vietnam widens, Tom feels a call to help the wounded soldiers. After a long talk with his girl friend Mackenzie, he decides to enlist in the Army as a combat medic. However his family is mortified by his decision, creating a an argument between family members that can never be truly healed. After basic training, Tom returns home to marry Mackenzie. After a short tour of duty in Germany, orders arrive for Vietnam. Tom is assigned to an helicopter evacuation squadron at Binh Thuy, located in the Mekong Delta. After just a few days, Tom realizes how brutal the war can be, as day after day, they deliver wounded men to the hospital. Tom becomes emotionally involved with one of the nurses, even though he has a child on the way back home. Both Tom and the nurse realize they are making a mistake and end the relationship. The squadron is sent to Quang Tri, to help fight a battle in the Central Highlands. For weeks the men evacuate the wounded, until several of the medics are killed. A medic that is a conscientious objector is assigned to the squadron. Because of his history with other combat units, there are problems among members of the squadron. Tom agrees to work with him, leading to a tragic end. Returning to Binh Thuy, the men find out headquarters in Saigon have decided to wipe out Viet Cong activity in the delta region. The fighting is tough and the casualties are high. After one mission Tom's chopper is shot down. With two crew members injured, Tom struggles to no avail to rescue the pilot before the chopper sinks. The survivors swim to an island where they seek refuge in an old patrol boat base. Quickly they find out a detachment of Viet Cong are on the island operating a radio base. After a quick battle all but one are killed. The survivor is a young girl. Tom works hard to save her life, knowing he might have been the one who shot her. Just as they are to be rescued she passes away. The men bring her body back to Binh Thuy to be buried in a small cemetery. Returning to the mission, Tom and one other medic are assigned to work with a CIA/SOG Operative. They quickly realize he is a brutal sadistic murderer that has his own agenda. With the help of some AirCav soldiers, his reign of death ends. However an American General believes more needs to be done. He decides to take his complaints regarding the CIA and SOG to the President. But he is not ready when he finds out who is involved and what might come of his actions.Once again the squadron is sent back to the Central Highlands. However this time the Viet Cong are under estimated and they are determined to wipe out the Americans in the battle. With choppers destroyed Tom and several medics must fight like infantry. After being wounded several times, Tom fights with every ounce of energy left in his body, allowing the rest of the men to escape.

Toms body is returned to Glendale, Minnesota for burial. His family struggles to understand all that has happened, as Mackenzie vows to raise their son Sean, never letting him forget the kind of hero his father was.

Not Floresent
The remote control cover fits ideally on the remote for the Apple remote but it’s not fluorescent the color is very dull I didn’t bother sending it back because it’s really not worth it for what I paid for these basically this little remote cover just protects the remote from getting damaged .

I'm impressed! Simple but quite effective, affordable, properly designed
Color: Walnut Wood
I normally don't review items unless I am very impressed or feel I need to review to warn others of a particularly poor product. In this case I am highly impressed! Great price (compare to others made from plastic), well designed and quality construction. Simple but quite effective. Quality wood support, smooth sanded and beautifully finished.. The wood support is designed and created to properly support headphones without damage to the headband as a simple hook or peg design might I have a home recording studio and don't want some cheap shlopck headphone holder to damage my $300 headphones in any way. This support is very reasonably priced, and offers 2 ways to mount. Included double sided self adhesive or using a screw through the hole at the top of the metal bracket. Screw mounting hardware is included. The metal bar used is incredibly robust but is well suited aesthetically to complement the wood rest. I would recommend to my friends or anyone who wants a quality, I expensive, and affection headphones holder. Don't hesitate to purchase, you won't be sorry!

Awesome Quality great for my headphones
Color: Walnut Wood
I recently purchased the Wood Headphone & Headset Wall Mount in Black, and it has truly transformed my workspace! The space-saving design is a game-changer, instantly decluttering my desk and giving it a sleek, organized look. The curved bearing area is a thoughtful touch, ensuring that my headphone head beam remains in perfect condition without any risk of deformation or dents. The combination of aluminum alloy and wood not only gives it a modern aesthetic but also makes it incredibly sturdy and strong. I was initially skeptical about using double-sided tape, but the 3M tape provided proved to be exceptionally reliable. The mount is securely adhered to my wall, and I can trust that it will never break or fall. What I love most is its versatility – it accommodates all types of headphones, even the heaviest ones, and I've even used it to hang my handbags and backpacks. It's truly a versatile and practical solution for anyone looking to optimize their workspace. I highly recommend the Wood Headphone & Headset Wall Mount for its durability, functionality, and the aesthetic upgrade it brings to any room!
