Goodbye, Darkness: A Memoir of the Pacific War

Goodbye, Darkness: A Memoir of the Pacific War

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Think of the movie Saving Private Ryan but only if Private James Ryan did most of the talking. If he started his story from his signing up for military service and he talks of his experience from battle to battle; the friends and comrades he had lost, often violently; till finally he talks of his experience again only this time as an old man visiting the old battlefields.
