More than twenty years after its original publication, Wallace Terry's Bloods remains the definitive account of African American soldiers' valiant service in Vietnam. This magnificent book explores a time when black Americans were fighting at home for equal rights, and in Vietnam for America. These soldiers banded together in solidarity and called themselves "Bloods." Heartbreaking and heroic, these oral histories are the essential stories of the brave men who waged a second war all their own in Vietnam.
