In his two decades as a reporter, author Eric Poole
racked up more than 30 regional and national awards
while interviewing presidents and other luminaries.
Here Poole recounts the experiences of a band of U.S.
soldiers in Vietnam, including the heroics of Leslie Sabo
Jr., who died saving his comrades and finally received
his Medal of Honor some 42 years after his act of
breathtaking courage.
