Charles Henderson's new book about Carlos Hathcock "Silent Warrior" takes place in the same time period of the first book "Marine Sniper" but includes information from the other side too, the VC and NVA including General Tran Van Tra(VC C in C) who authorized the formation of special sniper unit with the sole purpose of killing Carlos and then after it's failure placing a $20,000 bounty on his head.
In all a very good read about the best known and respected rifleman to come along since Sgt York. And one missed by the sniper community as a whole.
