Hunters & Shooters: An Oral History of the U.S. Navy SEALS in Vietnam

The great thing about this oral history is that you get a personal feel for the characters as they talk about their experiences. The wide range of experiences are reflected in the wide range of personalities that the history is drawn from. The accounts are honest and sincere. Each account begins with a brief editorial introduction and summary of a different aspect of the SEALs unit formation and operational history in Viet Nam. This helps the reader to understand the subject as a broad total of experiences rather than just a bundle of yarns slapped together. The editor did a great job of putting the accounts in an informative sequence which gave this reviewer a greater background understanding of the following accounts as I progressed through the book.I bought my copy during a visit to the SEAL/ UDT Museum in Fort Pierce, Florida and I strongly recommend other interested military buffs to buy this book and check out the museum. Well worth it.

This was a great book!! I started it on a Friday & was finished by Sunday. 15 great stories told by the men who lived it. A must read if you enjoy SEAL books.

This is a great book about 15 SEALS and their experiences from training to the Vietnam war and life in the teams. It is interesting to read about the different personalities of this elite group and the things that make them alike. Highly recommended.

The book was really good

I thought this book was and indepth and exciting book. It is about 16 Navy SEALs and their stories in Vietnam. The storys range to be about 10-60 pages in length. They are written from a first person view of a Navy SEAL in their own account of the Vietnam war. The stories start from about where they were born and why they joined the Navy to become a SEAl. It goes through indepth deatil about the traing in some stories. And it also has a detailed accurate account of that person's part in the Vietnam War. I would reccomed this book to anybody who is interested in the Navy SEALs or the Vietnam War. I personally had fun reading this book and hope anyone else who does the same experince
