Non-Fiction of Fallen Angles

Fallen Angles by Walter Dean Myers

Pages (67-104)

From what I read so far in the book, Fallen Angles has portraited a uncanny likeness of real battle situations. For instance Charlie Company was pinned down and Simpson said that their are suppose to be marines coming in to help out Charlie Company. Another thing I have noticed in research is that I have done, The places that are mentioned in the book are actual places where some battles have taken place. It is amazing that the story ties in the location without messing with the actual events in the real war. Fallen angles has mastered the whole battle combat. Mines tearing through soldiers, the battles in the jungles, and the way the helicopters fly around. Its just amazing the work put into this fiction book that makes it seem like non-fiction.
