i threw this book away
The title of this book is misleading. For over 200 pages I got to read all about his family, his holidays, his pets, inside jokes, and other uneventful detail. Once in a while for a couple of pages he would slip in something about how he armed pre-teen children to fight in the jungles. If his book was his personal reflections, the title shouldn't say it's about CIA operations in Laos.

Excellent! Real people - Real PATRIOTS!
It is good to see a "down to earth" book like this, coming from a "been there, done that" author. As far as I am concerned, this book should be mandatory reading for all high school history teachers. It would be nice to see the future generations "completly" educated. A 68-69 Udorn RTAFB, Thailand veteran.

very indepth and detailed
I truely enjoyed reading this book. I especially liked the character developments of each person and their envolvement during the Vietnam War. i believe that Mr. Parker has a great understanding of the incidents as relating to the CIAs' involement in the Vietnam War.
