Ergebnis für "The Vietnam War" in Anthologien & Kurzgeschichten

All the stories in this collection from Stephen King are related to the Vietnam War. King fans will recognize echoes of The Dark Tower series in the collection's first story, "Low Men in Yellow Coats." As the characters develop over the next four stories, King's version of the Vietnam War becomes one of his most frightening tales ever.

Join Sergeant Andy Carter and his squad as they navigate the dense jungles of Vietnam on a perilous search and destroy mission to locate and eliminate a heavily fortified NVA base camp. As they confront danger at every turn, the bond between the men is tested like never before. Will they rely on each other to survive or will the chaos of combat tear them apart?

In the dense jungles of Vietnam, the line between hunter and hunted is razor-thin. For Sergeant Andy Carter and his squad of soldiers, it's a brutal reality they must navigate every day as they pursue a ruthless Vietcong captain deep into enemy territory.

As they battle through the unforgiving jungle, the team must confront the treacherous terrain, the constant threat of the North Vietnamese Army, and the complexities of a war where the lines between friend and foe blur. With time running out and the odds stacked against them, Carter and his men push forward, driven by an unwavering determination to bring their fellow soldier home. But when a surprise attack fractures the team, each man must confront his own fears, doubts, and the harsh realities of war as they fight for survival and strive to complete their mission.

A young girl, caught up in an inner-city gang war, crosses the line from victim to avenger.... An innocent man is hunted by government agents for an unspecified crime....

These 12 stories reflect the combat infantry experience of the Vietnam War--in the gritty “Tanks,” “Called of God,” and “Incubation Period.” There’s also the woman’s perspective of Arlene, a naive Red Cross volunteer or “Doughnut Dolly,” in “A Man’s World.”

In the gripping novella “After the Inferno,” Sergeant Andy Carter and his squad are thrust back into the heart of the Vietnam War, mere days after surviving a harrowing ordeal. As they navigate the treacherous jungles and face a relentless enemy, the bonds of brotherhood are tested, and sacrifices must be made. Carter’s leadership is put to the ultimate test when an ambush leaves him wounded and separated from his men. With time running out and the enemy closing in, the squad must confront their deepest fears and summon the courage to rescue their fallen leader.

Author Glyn Haynie, a Vietnam veteran, draws upon his own experiences to create a vivid and authentic portrayal of the war, immersing listeners in the intense action, camaraderie, and sacrifices made by the soldiers on the ground. As Carter and his men face the constant threat of enemy fire and the unforgiving terrain, they are thrust into a harrowing battle for survival when a raging inferno engulfs the hillside.

The short stories contained in The Many Deaths of Comrade Binh are fiction. This does not, however, mean they aren't true. Retired naval officer Kenneth Levin readily admits to some artistic license, but each tale is based on actual events that occurred during the Vietnam War.
