Looking for a Hero

Staff Sergeant Joe Ronnie Hooper and the Vietnam War

Buch

Widely acclaimed as the Vietnam War's most highly decorated soldier, Joe Ronnie Hooper in many ways serves as a symbol for that conflict. His troubled, tempestuous life paralleled the upheavals in American society during the 1960s and 1970s. Looking for a Hero extracts the real Joe Hooper from the welter of lies and myths that swirl around his story.
