Lieutenant Jim Hollister is young, ambitious, and ready to prove himself in the most dangerous role the Vietnam War can offer—a Long Range Patrol platoon leader. Leading a six-man reconnaissance team, Hollister must navigate missions deep in enemy territory where survival depends on stealth, skill, and sheer nerve.
His men are special volunteers, chosen for their grit and courage. Together, they set ambushes, run perilous night patrols, drop into hostile zones by helicopter, and provide fire support in battles that test every ounce of their strength.
Written by a Vietnam veteran, Long Range Patrol captures the camaraderie, fear, and relentless determination of soldiers fighting for each other’s lives in the unforgiving crucible of war.
