Keith Wheeler was a war correspondent attached to the United States Marine Corps during World War Two. He was wounded on Iwo Jima and evacuated to Aiea Hospital in Hawaii. While in the hospital Wheeler decided to write about those Marines and sailors he met. The anecdotes he relates are hard and unrelenting, not only because of the wounds suffered by these men, but because of their determination to overcome their injuries. It is an excellent, powerful work that should be essential reading for any student of World War Two.
