LRRP (Provisional) 2nd Bde 4th Infantry Division Vietnam 1966-67

De: Frank Camper

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

True story of the 2nd Brigade, 4th Infantry Division's small, ragtag "provisional" long range patrol platoon that was so effective it became the official model for 1st and 2nd Field Force MACV LRRP's covering the whole country, authorized by General Westmoreland. The 2nd Brigade LRRP's made history.

the use of voice AI is not how such an important story should be told..

dislike the use of AI voice mispronouncing words..and SOG stood for studies and observation group not special operations group.. not having properly titles and names is disrespectful to the men that experienced this war,

This is an excellent book

Dont be put off by the clumsy title and "virtual voice" narration, if you are interested in lrrps or the Vietnam war in general, you'll love this book. Honestly the artificial voice acting is pretty impressive, outside of a few brief moments it sounds perfectly fine

AI Narrator

The story is a familiar one, and I enjoy hearing the background and exploits of the Vietnam War and the brave soldiers who actively participated in the fight. That said, the AI narrator is a sad example of failure to provide the story the respect it deserves with a human reading it. Mispronunciations, inaccurate sentence translation (stopping as if a complete sentence after an abbreviation, i.e. “Col. Smith”), mixing military abbreviations and literal spellings (145th Arty pronounced as one four five tee aytch arty) etc, etc were obvious and repeated throughout the book. My suggestion would be to find a few VFW lodges and get some narrators who would very likely do it for free.

Great story - bad read by AI

Amazing first person retelling of their time in country. You can almost imagine being in his skin. Unfortunately the virtual voice was a horrible choice. It took away from the overall experience.

A book on legends

Great read, a must for Vietnam and special ops history fans. I would Recommend to all.
