BEFORE THE DAWN : BEFORE THE DAWN

Rating:
Summary: Before the Dawn
Review: Micky was a highly decorated combat disabled veteran who served in the Riverine. Some of the training was at Coronado Island and that is where the SEAL team does a portion of their training. It is too bad that so many that went through Coronado like to consider themselves as SEAL team members. That is the main flaw in the book. Bill Kimball has helped several veterans write their story and has done a very fine job. Micky is a personal friend and I feel bad about this, as he served his country above and beyond his call.

Review: While it is probably true that the author is not an offical Navy Seal I found the book to be an excellent look into the life of Vietnam veterans. I have met one of the people mentioned in the book; Dave Roever. He was definetly injured as listed in the book. I would recommend this book to anyone with an interest in the war and particularly the effects of war.
