Samenvatting
[Includes 28 illustrations & 15 maps]
Engagements with the elusive Vietcong and NVA were unlike the frontlines and complex battles that the United States military had been fighting for over a hundred years; they were often short, brutal affairs. The U.S. soldiers and marines were often thrust into battle outnumbered and in hostile territory, or ambushed in convoy or on patrol; but given a fair fight the Americans would most often come out on top. Three authors, all of whom had seen action in Vietnam, set about collecting and illustrating examples of the types of fighting that occurred during the war; from the famous battle between the 7th Cavalry and the NVA in the Ia Drang valley to the countrywide Tet offensive. The examples recounted in this book in vivid and expert detail are;
Fight at Ia Drang by John A. Cash
Convoy Ambush on Highway 1 by John Albright
Ambush at Phuoc An by John A. Cash
Fight Along the Rach Ba Rai by John Albright
Three Companies at Dak To by Allan W. Sandstrum
Battle of Lang Vei by John A. Cash
Gunship Mission by John A. Cash
