Acerca de esta escucha
The Forest of Assassins is a historic thriller set in the earliest days of the American involvement in the Vietnam War. It involves the earliest of Navy SEAL teams. It is set in a time when the Navy still did not admit these men existed - much less had they determined if those units would survive until the next conflict, or if the experiment would be abandoned.

Chief Petty Officer James "Patches" Watson was there at the start. One of the first to come out of the famed Underwater Demolition Team 21, he was an initial member—a "plank owner"—of America's deadliest and most elite fighting force, the U.S. Navy SEALs. Through three tours in the jungle hell of Vietnam, he walked the point—staying alert to trip wires, booby traps, and punji pits, guiding his squad of amphibious fighters on missions of rescue, reconnaissance, and demolition—confronting a war's unique terrors head-on, unprotected . . . and unafraid.

After enlisting in the Marines at 17, then being wounded in Santo Domingo during the Dominican crisis, Kugler arrived in Vietnam in early 1966. As a new sniper with the 4th Marines, Kugler picked up bush skills while attached to 3d Force Recon Company, and then joined the grunts.

Vietnam, 1968—United States Air Force reconnaissance photos appear to show a newly built POW camp close to the DMZ. Special Forces Captain Mack Gerber and Master Sergeant Anthony B. Fetterman are sent into the jungles of North Vietnam to take a closer look. Instead of a POW compound, they discover a Soviet-run training camp for the NVA. American military officials believe a Russian presence could severely undermine the US war effort in Vietnam. The only option is to launch a raid into North Vietnam. Gerber's men now have a new mission: go in with guns blazing . . . and get out alive.

After boot camp, "Greeny", as he was later known by his Recon team buddies, attended radio communication school in San Diego, California. As a radio operator, upon arrival in Vietnam, Greenberg was both surprised and troubled when he was arbitrarily assigned to the First Recon Battalion, generally considered to be an elite unit.

Halfway through SEAL training, Cadet Jack Walker, still green but showing incredible promise, is whisked away to join four SEALs and their dog for a special-ops mission.

Historia
Robin Moore became one of the first true embedded journalists by training with and fighting alongside the Green Berets in Vietnam. Though fictionalized, his work is an eye-opening exposé of the horrors of the Vietnam War and the basis for the hit John Wayne movie of the same title. Taut, fast-paced, and interspersed with unforgettable accounts of combat, Moore’s novel features an American major who goes "native" with Montagnard tribesmen, a courageous Vietnamese girl who poses as a rabid anti-American Communist to capture a murderous Viet Cong officer, and the unforgettable acts of courage of soldiers in the field.

An honest tour of the Vietnam War from the soldier's eye view... Nam-Sense is the brilliantly written story of a combat squad leader in the 101st Airborne Division. Arthur Wiknik was a 19-year-old kid from New England when he was drafted into the US Army in 1968. After completing various NCO training programs, he was promoted to sergeant "without ever setting foot in a combat zone" and sent to Vietnam in early 1969. Shortly after his arrival on the far side of the world, Wiknik was assigned to Camp Evans, a mixed-unit base camp near the Northern village of Phong Dien.

well written
disclaimer: "I was provided this audiobook by the producer in exchange for an unbiased review
I must say this is a book written by a person with first hand experience with Vietnam or who really did his research.
I was worried it might a political statement rag but it was not. it truly honored the men that served and tried leaving all the foreign policy blunders out of it.
highly recommend this for anyone that likes a book of truths and action as well a fodder for thought.

Military Read
Any additional comments?
The story itself was ok, however, it relied on multiple generalities and there wasn't anything that could be called a surprise during the listen. My main issue with this audiobook is the reader... very monotone, slow and military-ish. He did get out of the monotone while he tried to use different voices for separate characters but overall that was maybe 20-30% of the book. I almost ditched it but since it really wasn't all that long I went ahead and stayed with it.

Front Seat To Development of SEAL Program Document
Where does The Forest of Assassins rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Somewhere in the middle. This is not a slam on the book. It lands in the middle because I listen to so many.
What did you like best about this story?
Several reviewers gave this book low marks. Perhaps because it is more of a documentary style of writing. Once you realize that this is very similar to a 'real' look into this conflict and the regimented style. I had a hard time 'getting into it,' but I had *agreed to to listen in exchange for a review, but once I was it kept me riveted.
Which character – as performed by Andrew Tell – was your favorite?
Andrew Tell's performance was above average. His low, gravel was perfect for anyone; 18 year old solder, to the older commanders. He was believable as female characters-wives and those were working along side our soldiers.
Any additional comments?
Hi! Thanks for checking out my review. Reviews help me in deciding whether or not to purchase a books, especially new authors or performers. Sometimes they are helpful and sometimes they're not. If you found this review helpful would you take a moment and select 'YES' below the next paragraph?
Follow me on Audible, if you'd like. My favorite books are contemporary romance and counter-terrorism/thrillers books by authors like Vince Flynn. However, you will find books from all genres, as I'm asked to listen to and review.
Authors & narrators, feel free to share my review on any other media that you would like. It's all yours, please include "review from DK via Audible" and link it back to this site.

The forest of assassin
What did you like best about this story?
A well written story that covers the real parts of the Vietnam war without the typical tap dance around sensitive issues. Covers the reality of the men who were shunned when they came back and what they did when they were there. A very enlightening book.

Great Vietnam Story
I was given this book to review quite some time ago and it somehow got lost in the shuffle. I am glad I found it.
Even today, there is more written about the crisis in Iraq, Afghanistan and what is currently happening there. Only recently have there been accounts of the brave men who fought in Vietnam. I am not sure as to the reason this is the case. Perhaps because it was such an unpopular and futile undertaking that everyone hopes the memory will just fade. It hasn't and it won't, especially to the soldiers and their families.
This was an excellent account, told as a story, of some of the missions carried out by the first Navy Seals in Vietnam. It tells of the impossible missions they were tasked with and the single minded determination with which those missions were carried out. It spells out, for us non military people, just what it means to be all alone, really alone, in a foreign country, in a place where most people hate you and the rest were indifferent at best.
It was very well written and the narration was top notch as well. Highly recommend.

Early Vietnam War Era Novel
I used to consider myself as someone with a lot of interest in the Vietnam war. I read a lot of memoirs, movies, non fiction books, but I never really came across that much fiction. Quite a lot of novels had sections set in the war, including a lot of Peter Straub's novels, but I never really came across many novels. And in the era of audiobooks, I haven't started to revisit the interest to date. I was provided this audiobook at no charge by the producer in exchange for an unbiased review via AudiobookBlast dot com. I was glad for the opportunity as the subject matter as a whole interested me. I found the overall setting quite intriquing too. I was always aware that Seals were in the Vietnam war, but I wasn't aware that they were involved in the advisor days, prior to the Gulf of Tonkin incident. I guess it does make sense though. I don't know enough to say whether this is speculative or based in fact, but it is plausible, and from the perspective of fiction, good enough for me.
The story itself is a good read, told from the perspective of the team leader, covering the end of his tour, and ending with an epilogue, at the Vietnam War Memorial. I feel it is more of a personal story than an all out "war story", covering missions, loss, life at the base, life off the base, reunion with his wife, and coming home. I enjoyed the writing style, and felt it engaging and easy to follow.
Andrew Tell did a fine job on the narration. He only has 14 books listed currently, and I actually have three of them in my library, and a couple more on my wish list.
In all I'd highly recommend this
