Book
Jungle scout : a Vietnam War story / Tim Hoppey ; illustrated by Ramon Espinoza.
In late 1969, sixteen-year-old former Viet Cong member Lam Hung is now a Kit Carson Scout for the United States Marines, ordered to steer the troops safely around explosive land mines and deadly booby traps. One mistake could mean their lives. Lam's most difficult task could be getting the platoon to trust him, a former enemy. Includes panel art and narrative text.
