Reseña del libro "Public Information: Coming of age During the Korean war (en Inglés)"

CANDIDE meets MASH. How the Korean War began, why it's relevant today.Freshly minted infantryman, twenty-year-old Wylie Cypher, arrives in war torn Korea in 1952. As an enemy bomber looms overhead, he prays that he can survive a sixteen-month tour of duty. Wylie is recruited to join the staff of a Division Public Information Office (PIO) where he reports on many aspects of the conflict. He uses his infantry training in bloody combat, makes many colorful new friends, learns how to maneuver through the military system, finds love and loss, and grows up in the turmoil of combat and the war's aftermath.Veterans have hailed the story as accurate, believable, touching, funny, and "the way it really was." The novel is based on the author's experiences and careful historical research. He touches on prisoner of war experiences on both sides of the DMZ, the armistice, realistic scenes of combat, the many United Nations forces engaged in the war, and poignant and funny aspects of military service.The second edition of the book includes recently disclosed information, and scenes and observations drawn from the comments of many veteran readers. The book is dedicated to the dwindling number of men and women who risked their lives to preserve democracy in South Korea.
