In his memoir, retired U.S. Army Col. Henrik “Hank” Lunde offers a remarkable account of his experiences during the Vietnam War and beyond. Lunde’s military journey involved three tours in Vietnam, including roles such as commanding a rifle company with the 1st Brigade, 101st Airborne Division, and negotiating with North Vietnam as Chief of Negotiations for the U.S. delegation to the Four Party Joint Military Team. Born in Norway in 1936, Lunde emigrated to the U.S. as a teenager, and his early life experiences in Norway and his struggles adapting to a new country enrich the narrative. Lunde’s memoir not only provides war stories but also offers profound insights into warfare and human nature, making it a valuable read for military historians and those interested in the life of an exceptional soldier.
