Kelley Narrator: Malcolm Hillgartner Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 28 minutes Release date: November 21, 2023 Genres: Military Publisher's Summary: The Gunner and the Grunt is written in the voices of two soldiers who fought in the same battles as members of the same recon unit but from different angles. Michael Kelley, the 'Gunner,' was flying in an armed helicopter above the jungle providing suppressive fire support, while Peter Burbank, the 'Grunt,' was down in the jungle on foot patrol involved in fire fights with Viet Cong and North Vietnamese Army troops. The book follows these two Boston boys from army training through deployment to the war zone and the shock of first combat missions, to helicopter air assault 'Search and Destroy' operations from the Cambodian border to the sands of the South China Sea.
