Publisher's Synopsis

The author, a veteran, is professor and chief of general surgery for the University of Mississippi Medical Center. This title details the struggles at five iconic American battles: Bataan, Anzio, Bastogne (World War II); Chosin (Korea); Khe Sanh (Vietnam). Most readers do not think about what happens to wounded soldiers; this book is as gripping and moving as any great military history, yet it revolves around the immediate care of soldiers who have suffered in combat.
