Forgotten is a gripping war story which takes readers right into the heart of the Vietnam War. Follow American GI Private Henri Dragon's squad as they perform a reconnaissance patrol near a remote village. From dealing with hostile locals to navigating dense jungles, every step is a fight for survival. With vivid descriptions and intense action told from Henri Dragon’s perspective, this short tale will transport you into this brutal conflict and leave you on the edge of your seat until the bitter end. Yesterday, two new guys were lost to a landmine. It's just another day in Vietnam, and another walk in the jungle. Or is it?
