Bruce B.G. Clarke is a retired Army Colonel with extensive strategic, operational and tactical experience. Clarke fought in the Battle of Khe Sanh and later participated in both the planning for and retaking of the combat base.
Praise for Expendable Warriors has been received by a diverse group of experts including decorated military officers, academic authorities, and participants in the action.
“Colonel Clarke’s analysis of the events around Khe Sanh is must reading for future combat leaders. In fact, it should be read by everyone. We should all heed Bruce’s admonition that ‘We need to learn from our mistakes and ensure that we don’t repeat them. We owe it to the next generation of brave soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Marines that they will not have to endure similar tests of their courage and determination.’”
