"This memoir presents O'Brien's REAL experiences in the Vietnam war. It's realistic and frank, but so gritty with its language and sex talk that it would be hard for me to recommend."
"Good intro to Vietnam combat lit for those who know little about the war from the foot soldier's perspective, but often gets mired in cliche. I'm a fan of O'Brien's writing generally, but Phil Caputo has this one beat by a mile. There are brief instances of the brilliance O'Brien displays in 'The ThingsThey Carried' - his discourse upon courage, for example, and the final pages about returning the the States - but most of the text comes off as standard Vietnam faire."
