Return To Iwo Jima + 50

Rating:
Summary: Outstanding
Review: Robert Maiden's outstanding memoir provides an unparalleled foxhole view of the battle of Iwo Jima. Beginning with Paramarine training, this well put together memoir chronicles his journey through WWII capturing the hell of the Pacific's worst battle. The book then moves through the post-war years to Korea, culminating with the landings at Inchon. Maiden later serves in Vietnam. I highly recommend Return from Iwo Jima because it's written by a true hero and patriot.
