Description: Fresh out of West Point, John Howard arrived for his first tour in Vietnam in 1965, the first full year of escalation when U.S. troop levels increased to 184,000 from 23,000 the year before. When he returned for a second tour in 1972, troop strength stood at 24,000 and would dwindle to a mere 50 the following year. He thus participated in the very early and very late stages of American military involvement in the Vietnam War. His two tours—one as a platoon commander and member of an elite counterguerrilla force, the second as a senior advisor to the South Vietnamese—provide a fascinating lens through which to view not only one soldier’s experience in Vietnam, but also the country’s. **

Review:   Let me first say that I did enjoy this book - to a degree. That's why it gets 4 stars. But it's important to know that this is not a great book, which with the authors experiences, it really could have been. One of the biggest deficiencies is that he spends more time telling than showing. Good books of this genre give you a first hand view of what happened and what someone experienced. This book is very light on that, especially during his 1965 tour. It gets better with his Korean and Advisor experiences later on, but only just. Instead you get a lot of history of Vietnam, a lot of history of what happened, who went where, what they did. It's all very strategic and 1000 foot level when what this book is supposed to be is very in the weeds at the 1 foot personal experience level. This is a man who participated in a lot of intense operations, worked with incredible people like Foley and Hackworth, and was both a part of ABU and Tiger Recon with the 101st. But you never really get a feel for what it was like to be a member of either. You never get to experience a recon mission, though he was a part of many. You just know that x unit moved to y place, and then this is what happened / this was the outcome. 

You get a good overview of the battles, the war, and even a few of the people, but very little else from his time with the 101st. 

His time in Korea is a bit better and gives you a good understanding of what happened and some incidents and the people. Also his time as an Advisor is also more personal as well. So maybe it's just a memory thing and things from 72 are easily recalled vs 65. 

One thing you'll notice is a lot of ring knocking and naming of generals... so many generals. So just... be prepared for that.  

Overall though, a decent book... he needs to work on the tell vs show more than anything. Up next, going to read Foley's Special Men. I always loved Foley's fictional writing, so I have high hopes for his book about his time with Tiger Recon and other units. I have a feeling it's going to be a good compliment to this book.

What other shows are you into, if any? 🥰

hi Ally <3

so besides MASH im into tons and tons!! ill just list some off the top of my head-

Cowboy Bebop: just finished rewatching this one, I wanted my dad to watch it. im a big anime fan, this one is high up on my list of favourites, its a classic! I even recommend it to non-anime fans because the gorgeous animation, compelling characters and story, and unique world building are just soooooooo good

Mob Psycho 100: hey. hey wanna watch something truly fucking bizarre and unique. wanna watch something that feels like going through therapy. want to cry your eyes out to the most unexpected anime dude of all time. boy do I have a show for you. MP100 makes me unreasonably emotional and I think everyone should watch it

Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood: my favourite anime of all time nothing else comes even close. I could write an essay on why FMAB should be required viewing. I wish everyone could experience watching it as a kid and going back to it as an adult and having your entire perspective and understanding shift because suddenly youre older than the main characters and shit is so much more horrifying than when you were the same age/younger

Gargoyles: what im currently watching. also a big cartoon fan. Gargoyles is such a wonderful product of the mid-90s and I adore it. I grew up on 80s and 90s cartoon so everything from the lore to the character designs is very nostalgic to me. I need to watch the last season still but I keep putting it off cause I know the quality dips

Avatar the Last Airbender: next show im picking for my dad and I to watch. I unironically consider it to be one of the best stories ever written, with some fantastic characters and what continues to be one of my favourite redemption arcs of all time

Batman the Animated Series: best Batman. no question. I do not accept criticism. I did watch Justice League + Justice League Unlimited with my dad recently and I quite enjoyed those, but nowhere near as much as I enjoyed BtAS. Kevin Conroy I miss you every day nobody understood Bruce Wayne like you did

Doctor Who: both Classic and New Who. we have a free streaming service with a Classic Who channel, and we've had the DVDs for New Who playing lately. my favourite show of all time! meant the world to me as a teenager and got me through a lot. I have a tattoo of 11's sonic and bowtie <3

Smallville: my dad did a rewatch of this recently and I was around for most of it. and listen, ok, Smallville is a cringe fest a lot of the time. its an early 2000s CW show. but its ironically still my favourite depiction of Clark Kent and Lex Luthor, and honestly probably my favourite Lois Lane

Star Trek: various Trek shows. TOS is currently playing a lot in the house, which I have seen all of and adore, but im also a huge TNG fan even though i. havent finished it. haha. Ive also seen most of Voyager and quite enjoyed it. at some point ill get to DS9 probably

The X-Files: another one I havent rewatched in years but think about often. X-Files truly had it all. not a day goes by that I dont think about Jose Chung's from Outer Space. this was the first show to make me physically grind my teeth and scream into a pillow over a slowburn

I have more but these are what I can remember off the top of my head and what I would rewatch! im big into shows and movies so I watch a lottttttt. shoutout to some other shows ive loved like Lucifer, the Mandalorian, Kenobi, Buffy the Vampire Slayer/Angel the Series, Schitt's Creek, The Owl House, Violet Evergarden, and others im sure im forgetting

華國三太子盃》臺將單打唯一希望許育修挺進8強 雙打何承叡搶十首勝開張

「2024華國三太子國際男子網球挑戰賽」5月12日至18日在臺北市網球中心熱鬧進行，今（15日）「臺灣一哥」許育修再度甜蜜復仇，以6-1，6-4擊敗日本對手野口莉央（Rio Noguchi）， 2連勝晉級單打8強，明（16日）下午將與南韓第6種子洪性贊（Hong Seongchan）爭奪準決賽門票；臺灣男雙一哥何承叡今也開胡，明晚再接再厲爭取雙打4強席次，歡迎球迷朋友到場為選手們加油。

「地主最後希望許育修再度甜蜜復仇  接連淘汰兩名日本好手」

許育修無愧為「2024華國三太子國際男子網球挑戰賽」地主單打的最後希望，昨（14日）旗開得勝，直落2扳倒難纏的日本第4種子內山靖崇（Yasutaka Uchiyama），賽史個人單打會內首勝到手後，身為本屆惟一挺進次輪的臺將，今天中午「寶島一哥」中央球場再出擊，面對另位東洋好手野口莉央，臺日雙雄2023年11月曾在神戶挑戰賽交鋒，當時直落2吞敗的許育修，如今回到主場甜蜜復仇，把握機會向老冤家討回顏面。

許育修直落二挺進單打八強

許育修開賽氣勢如虹，連下8球開局，順勢雙破壓制野口莉央，4-0有了好的開始。儘管盤中遭遇對手反撲，臺將互破之後保發滅火，拉開差距首盤到手。次盤許育修乘勝追擊，又取得2-0，儘管被難纏的野口莉央回破追上，關鍵第5局他再度突破還以顏色，並力保領先不失，總計耗費79分鐘，連下兩盤出線。

「對彼此都很熟悉，賽前有做好準備。去年底在日本輸給他，這次回主場一定要報仇，心態很明確，加上天氣放晴回溫，臨場狀態也比較穩定，所���打起來很順利。」許育修強勢淘汰野口莉央，今年第4度殺入ATP挑戰賽單打8強，週四對決ATP世界男單排名198的韓國選手洪性贊，手感漸入佳境的臺將信心滿滿透露，亞洲選手經常一起訓練，打法並不陌生，「單打還沒交手，雙打有打過，我會找些方法來準備，希望延續這股氣勢走下去。」

單、雙打全方位的許育修，還與國立體大學弟黃琮豪再度合拍，去年成都世界大學運動會男雙、男團勇奪金牌的最佳拍檔，華國三太子盃今晚壓軸場次上陣，可惜首輪纏鬥先盛後衰，許育修／黃琮豪7-6（7-3），3-6，3-10遭到澳洲人馬迪蘭尼（Jake Delaney）／普塞爾（Max Purcell）逆襲，錯失開胡機會，許育修將把重心放在繼續拚單打。

許育修和黃琮豪遭到對手逆轉

「臺灣男雙一哥何承叡頂住壓力  攜手南智星搶十勝出晉級8強」

至於雙打第3種子何承叡／南韓南智星（Nam Ji-sung）歷經搶十激戰，終以7-5，2-6，10- 2力退英國人馬帕里斯（Joshua Paris）／費里（Arthur Fery），左右開弓的「臺韓聯軍」上月中旬贏得釜山挑戰賽冠軍，如今也在臺北開胡晉級雙打8強，明晚次輪遭遇瑞士貝托拉（Remy Bertola）／印度拉馬納坦（Ramkumar Ramanathan），朝著4強邁進。

何承叡和韓國搭擋南智星苦戰三盤贏球

「以前靠外卡參與三太子盃，現在變成種子，其實開賽反而有點緊張。」24歲的何承叡正是臺灣男雙一哥，臨場不斷提醒自己保持信心，並享受在家出賽的感覺，加上截擊、移位出色的南智星，與他在底線互補搭配，尤其次盤輸掉兩人上廁所調整情緒後，搶十保持高昂鬥志，聯手發動一波9：0猛攻，總算頂住壓力撲滅對手反撲氣燄，「5週前在南韓，看著搭檔被自家球迷熱情包圍，感覺非常羨慕；如今換我當主角，希望能夠贏下去，吸引更多粉絲來看我們比賽。」

楊宗樺和謝政鵬復出首戰無緣勝利

至於原本已經半退休的「胖鵬配」楊宗樺／謝政鵬，本屆也獲雙打外卡攜手復出。2016年雙打冠軍的「胖鵬配」，正是賽史迄今惟一純本土封王的臺將���合，目前都當教練的「小胖」、「A鵬」寶刀未老，雖然相隔4年沒合拍出賽，晚間初登場仍把日本第4種子松井俊英（Matsui Toshihide）／上杉海斗（Uesugi Kaito）嚇出一身冷汗，可惜關鍵球沒掌握住，才以6-7（4-7），4-6射日失利。看到46歲的松井俊英還能在場上奮戰，已經都沒有職業排名的「胖鵬配」賽後齊聲說：「很佩服，這也激勵我們，將來如果有機會，還是會想再拚看看，在教球和比賽之間找到平衡。」

吳東霖和韓國搭擋鄭允成雙打敗北

此外，吳東霖／南韓鄭允成（Chung Yun-seong）4-6，4-6惜敗給日本組合清水悠太（Yuta Shimizu）／詹姆斯．特羅特（James Kent Trotter）；李冠毅／尹邦碩3-6 ，5-7不敵第2種子波蘭馬圖謝夫斯基（Piotr Matuszewski）／澳洲羅米奧斯（Matthew Christopher Romios），都在首輪止步。

尹邦碩和李冠毅遺憾止步首輪
