"Full of ambushes and firefights...From page one I knew I wanted to be a SEAL. The more I read, the more I wanted to see if I could measure up." --Mark Owen, #1 "New York Times" bestselling author of "No Easy Day"
Because it's a novel, the truth can be told. Because it's the truth, you'll never forget it...
Gene Wentz's "Men in Green Faces" is the classic novel of Vietnam that inspired a generation of SEALs. Here is the story of a good soldier trained to be part of an elite team of warriors--and of the killing grounds where he was forever changed.
