Joe Walker’s call-up papers arrive on the doormat, and within weeks he finds himself shipped overseas to South Vietnam.

It is 1965, and America is putting more boots on the ground to fight the Communists who have sent their powerful People’s Army of Vietnam, the PAVN, south. Their aim, to defeat the South Vietnamese Army, the ARVN, and impose the iron fist of Communist rule on the democratic South.

Walker knows nothing of politics, or military strategy and tactics. A single obsession rules his life. To become a Major League baseball pitcher. His unit is Air Cavalry, and a Huey lands them at LZ X-Ray. The region is Ia Drang, the North Vietnamese Army has two battalions of crack troops waiting for them, and Joe had yet to receive a single lesson in the use of the M-14. Under intense fire, surrounded and cut-off, his unit is faced with annihilation.

Heroes of Vietnam Book 1 – Incoming is the first shortread fictional war story set during the Vietnam War. The book is a collaboration between Todd McLeod and Eric Meyer, the bestselling author of more than fifty war novels.
