Here, in his own words, is the riveting true story of Daniel Evans, Jr., the highly decorated soldier whom the men of First Platoon, Bravo Company, called the "fighting medic". Whether skimming the treetops in a MEDEVAC chopper or slogging through the mangrove swamps with an M-16 in one hand and an aid kit in the other, it was Evan's job to treat the wounded amid the mud and blood and bullets, or die trying. Charles Sasser served as a combat medic with the Green Berets. Photo insert.
