Description
Sgt. Ed Eaton's story is one of unexpected heroism and sacrifice. In 1969, at the age of 19, he enlisted in the US Army with ambitions to become a combat medic. Instead, he found himself in the unique Army/Navy Riverine Force in the Mekong Delta, where he rose to the rank of platoon sergeant. Ed's unique skills as a sniper were soon in high demand, and he became one of the first members of the US Army to be specifically trained in this role. However, it was his actions on the night of April 3, 1969, that would have a lasting impact on his life. For Ed, recounting the events of that night was one of the toughest tasks he ever faced. In "Mekong Mud Dogs", he shares his story in a way that is both personal and profound, offering a unique insight into the experiences of a soldier in one of the most challenging environments of the Vietnam War.
