DEVIL DOGS OF NAM presents a personal, unforgettable account of the US Marine Corps in Vietnam. Featuring exclusive veteran accounts, dramatic archival footage, and expert commentary, it puts you in the field to experience the war through the eyes and words of the Marines who were there, the Marines who put their lives on the line for their country and for the Corps.
