Four ways to serve their country. Morris, Rudi, Ivan, and Beck are best friends for life. So when one of the teens is drafted into the Vietnam War, the others sign up, too. Although they each serve in a different branch, they are fighting the war together — and they pledge to do all they can to come home together. Haunted by dreams of violence and death, Morris makes it his personal mission to watch over his friends — and the best place to do that is in the US Navy. Stationed off the coast of Vietnam on the USS Boston, Morris and his fellow sailors provide crucial support to the troops on the ground. But the Boston itself isn't safe from attack. And as Morris finds his courage and resolve tested like never before, he keeps coming back to a single thought. He made a pledge. He must keep them safe.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBook 2:  Ivan has never backed down from a fight - especially when it   comes to fighting for what's right. Now, as war erupts in Vietnam, he wants nothing more than to fight for his country as a soldier in the US Army, just as his father did in World War II.  But Vietnam is not the war Ivan was expecting. Glory does not come so easily in the jungle. And for the first time, Ivan is forced to question what he's really   fighting for . . . and whether it's a fight he can hope to win\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBook 3:  Rudi is perhaps the most concerned about whether or not he'll be able to keep that promise. After all -- and he'd be the first to admit this -- he's not the most capable guy. He's not smart like Beck, or brave like Ivan. He lacks the strength of Morris's moral convictions.  But once Rudi is pulled kicking and screaming into the Marines, he at last finds something he's good at: following orders. Will that be enough to keep him alive? And if he does survive the war, will his best friends even recognize him on the other side?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBook 4:  When his three best friends go to Vietnam, Beck knows he must honor his promise to go with them. He enlists in the US Air Force, where he's able to work as a mechanic, learning about planes and choppers and supersonic jets. He's also able to view the war from above, where he can admire the savage beauty of the jungle at a distance.  Beck thinks he has it all figured out. But when his tour of duty takes a turn for the worse, one thing becomes clear: Beck still has a lot to learn about war, and about friendship, too.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e**STAR SELLER **\u003cbr\u003eSmooth shipping\u003cbr\u003eSpeedy replies\u003cbr\u003eSmoke free home\u003cbr\u003eFree shipping\u003cbr\u003e85","brand":"Three Pigeons Bookshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46992678617286,"sku":null,"price":48.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0749\/7983\/6102\/files\/il_fullxfull.7216113639_1tq2.jpg?v=1788114530","url":"https:\/\/threepigeonsbookshop.com\/products\/vietnam-chris-lynch-four-book-series","provider":"Three Pigeons Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
