Sobre IBD

D.O.R. deals with the two relatively tumultuous years that Vince Daley spent as an enlisted man in the Marine Corps after being injured during OCS training at Quantico in 1968. It also refers, somewhat obliquely, to the relatively serious subject of the Viet Nam War from the often frustrating and frequently comedic perspective of an enlisted man in the Marine Corps during this volatile period. Anyone who has served in the military, particularly as an enlisted man, should be able to relate to this book
