Book Recommendation
Thanks to Doc John Wood for sharing about a recent, must-read book written by a veteran of the 25th Infantry Division, 4th Battalion, 23rd Infantry Mechanized, Company A. It is an authentic memoir of his personal experiences in Vietnam during 1968.
The book is entitled Rolling Coffins, and the author is Brian Richard Esher, recipient of three purple hearts and the Distinguished Service Cross.
In the book's dedication and list of acknowledgments, our own Charlie Company's Cain Bridgman is mentioned:
"I also want to thank retired LTC Cain Bridgman for spending time with Tom Foster and me, explaining some of the big picture battles and incidents we were engaged in while serving under him in Vietnam. Without Cain Bridgman, I might not be here to tell this story!"
