The book details how Sergeant Reckless served as a pack horse for the Recoilless Rifle Platoon in the 5th Marine Regiment’s Anti-Tank Company. Reckless showed her heroics during the Battle of Outpost Vegas in 1953 when she made 51 trips under enemy fire in one day, carrying more than 9,000 pounds of ammunition to her boys in combat, and transporting wounded men back to safety. When the company was not engaged in combat, she would roam through camp, enter Marines’ tents to sleep and was known to eat scrambled eggs, beer and even enjoy morning coffee.
