The Greatest Beer Run Ever

Описание и характеристики
After a rowdy night in a New York bar, 'Chick' Donohue volunteered for a wild mission. He would voyage to Vietnam, and bring his soldier buddies a cold beer. It would be the greatest beer run ever!
Now, decades on from 1968, this is the remarkable true story of how he did it -tracking down the disbelieving soldiers one by one, armed with only Irish luck and a backpack full of alcohol.
Talking his way through checkpoints and unwittingly into dangerous situations, he saw so much more of the war than he ever planned - spending a terrifying time in the Demilitarized Zone, and getting caught up in the Tet Offensive.
What he finds comes as a shock. And by the end of this legendary misadventure, Chick finds himself deeply questioning why his friends were ever sent to Vietnam in the first place.
