Don't Let Me Die Lieutenant, Don't Let Me Die
註釋Manuel F. Martinez Jr. Silver Star Recipient Operation Bismark, Vietnam War A quiet and unassuming young man born and raised in Victorville, California, Manuel's life changed forever on that fateful day in December of 1966. Pinned down and seriously injured by combatant machine gun fire, believing he was only heartbeats from his own demise, Manuel fought back with everything he had in the hopes of saving the lives of his comrades. Miraculously surviving but never having been able to describe those harrowing moments to his family and friends, this book is Manuel's story, in his own words. Simple, straightforward and without malice, his recounts of that day, and his life since, will surely leave readers with a better understanding of what "heroes," at their core, are truly made of... Love for family, friends and country.
