Sometimes it takes years for a combat vet to understand what war did to him when he was nineteen. With the perception and reflection of a man on the cusp of retirement from a career teaching high school kids, Marty McClure recalls the relentless intensity of prolonged combat as a teenaged Marine machine gunner in a war with few boundaries.

Uneori ii iau ani de zile pentru ca un veterinar de lupta sa inteleaga ce i-a facut razboiul cand avea nouasprezece ani. Cu perceptia si reflectia unui barbat aflat in pragul retragerii dintr-o cariera de predare pentru copii de liceu, Marty McClure isi aminteste intensitatea necrutatoare a luptei prelungite ca un adolescent mitralier marin intr-un razboi cu putine granite.
