Index - Order of Battle - Photos - The author of this Vietnam War memoir was drafted in
November 1966 just before completion of his Ph.D. work in French history and entered the army,
age 26, in February 1967. He arrived in Vietnam in April 1968. Serving as both pointman and
sniper, he experienced six weeks of frontline duty, averaging a firefight each week with heavy
casualties. With his advanced degree and a $2.50 case of beer for a bribe, he then transferred to
the 19th Military History Detachment and spent the remainder of his tour of duty traveling the
Mekong Delta, Plain of Reeds, and areas near Saigon. His memoir is the result of a tour of
intense fighting, careful documentation, and an illicit diary. - Publisher's List

299pp - The mythology of the Green Berets, of their clandestine, special operations, has been
celebrated in story and song. The reality, however, could be quite different. This story of one
soldier's experience, the day-to-day loss and drudgery of Green Beret H. Lee Barnes, reveals the
daily grind and quiet desperation behind polished-for-public-consumption accounts of military
heroics. In When We Walked Above the Clouds, Barnes tells what it was like to be a Green
Beret, first in the Dominican Republic during the civil war of 1965, and then at A-107, Tra Bong,
Vietnam, where he eventually served as adviser to a Combat Recon Platoon consisting chiefly of
Montagnard irregulars. Though "nothing extraordinary," as Barnes saw it, his months of simply
doing what the mission demanded make for sobering reading: the mundane business of killing
rats, cleaning guns, and building bunkers renders the intensity of patrols and attacks all the more
harrowing. More than anything, however, Barnes's story is one of loss of morale lost to
alcoholism, teammates lost to friendly fire, missions aborted, and missions endlessly and futilely
repeated. And yet against this dark background, Barnes graciously honors the quiet professionals
whose service, overshadowed by the outsized story of Vietnam, nonetheless carried the
day.- Publisher's List Price = $19.95 -Our Price -

contemporary strategy written by Lewis Sorley, West Point class of 1956, and author of A Better
War and Westmoreland. With a foreword by Lt. Gen. Dave R. Palmer, U.S. Army (Ret.), Valor
in Vietnam presents a historical overview of the war through the eyes of participants in each

of 1988 Original - 253pp - Maps - Index - This thoughtful memoir recounts one man's
transformation from a glory-seeking, gung-ho Kansas teenager to a weary, twice-wounded grunt
who had volunteered for a second tour of duty. Enlisting in the Army in June 1964 at age 17,
Micheal Clodfelter was assigned to an artillery battalion of the 101st Airborne Division and
arrived at Cam Ranh Bay on July 29, 1965; on August 9, 1966, after having requested a transfer
to the infantry, he was assigned to Charlie Company, 2/502nd Airborne, serving in Phu Yen and
Kontum provinces. A second injury resulted in his medical evacuation from Vietnam on January
8, 1967. Describing the intensity of "mad minutes" (the general discharge of all weapons along a
defense perimeter to discourage a potential enemy attack) amid the monotony, exhaustion and
horror of war, Clodfelter writes of entering "a territory from which none of us ever really
returned."- Publisher's List Price = $19.95 -Our

Biblio - Maps - Photos - Con Thien was a firebase and outpost in northern I Corps held by the
U.S. Marines during much of the Vietnam War. Only 14 miles from the sea and two miles south
of the demilitarized zone that separated North and South Vietnam, Con Thien became the
recipient of regular artillery and rocket fire from NVA units located across the Ben Hai River in
the DMZ. The Vietnamese called this 158-meter-high isolated hill Nui Con Thien ("small
mountain with heavenly beings," or simply "hill of angels"). The Marine position there, actually
comprising three small hills, overlooked one of the principal North Vietnamese infiltration routes
into South Vietnam, and as a result, the Marines based there fought numerous engagements with
NVA regulars. The author was a Tank Platoon Commander at Con Thien from September 1967
to July 1968 - List Price = $19.95 - Our Price -

Maps - Black & White and Color Photos - From his arrival in war-torn Vietnam in 1968 to his
reluctant departure twenty-five months later, John Cook served as an advisor in the district of Di
An and took part in the systematic operations of the Phoenix Program to destroy the
Infrastructure, the political organization of the Viet Cong and North Vietnamese forces. The
Advisor is the story of those twenty-five months of fighting an laughing and hoping, and of the
people who shared them - Major Chau, a man who so tremendously symbolized dedication to the
destruction of the Infrastructure that the Viet Cong made several attempts on his life; Lietenant
Hau, Cook's Vietnamese counterpart and close friend; Colonel Anderson and Major Allen, two
of Di An's senior advisors; and other American and Vietnamese colleagues who - fighting a war
at its "rice roots," rather than viewing it through myriad news analyses and peace demonstration
demands - found it impossible to remain objective about such a conflict. More than the story of
bombings, sweep operations, enemy confrontations, and hamlet pillages, The Advisor tells how
one man came to see the Vietnam War as his war, how he bacame involved in the district
villagers' struggle for their freedom from terrorism, and how he learned the true costs of that
freedom - Overseas Shipping on this via Airmail Only! - Publisher's List Price

Index - Photos - Capturing the chaotic nature of the U.S. Marine experience at war in Vietnam,
this memoir recounts the experiences of a young officer in a series of unrelated short pieces. In a
narrative as fragmented as the war itself, the only resolution is the same one reached by the
Marines who fought the conclusion of a tour of duty with no happy ending. Each chapter
describes a specific event, a story of emotion, or a remarkable person (some are heroes, some are
cowards). The reader lives the experience alongside the author, gaining a true sense of the
pulse-pounding contact, surrealism, pathos, humor, and beauty that defined one of the low points
of the American experience - Publisher's List

thousands of young children fathered by American soldiers. The new regime regarded the
Amerasians as children of the enemy and ostracized them from Vietnamese society. The U.S.
government passed the Homecoming Act of 1988, finally facilitating immigration of Amerasians
to the United States. Most who have emigrated faced difficulty adjusting to a new culture and
only about 2 percent have been reunited with their fathers. Revealing and often poignant, the 38
interviews here give voice to the struggle that Amerasians and their mothers faced in their
homeland. - Publisher's List

Index - Notes - Biblio - Photos - Maps - The Vietnam War actually began in December 1946
with a struggle between the communists and the French for possession of the country. Vietnam's
strategic position in southeast Asia along with veiled economic concerns and a political agenda
led to the involvement of other countries, including the United States. Written by an officer in the
Republic of Vietnam Armed Forces, this poignant memoir seeks to clarify the nuances of South
Vietnam's defeat. From the age of 12, Van Nguyen Duong watched as the conflict affected his
home, family, village and friends. He discusses not only the day-to-day hardships he endured
from forced relocation and eventual imprisonment (after the fall of Saigon Van Nguyen Duong
was imprisoned for 13 years for "re-education" ) but also the anguish caused by the illusive
reality of Vietnamese independence. The various political forces at work in Vietnam, the
hardships suffered by RVNAF soldiers after the 1975 U.S. withdrawal from Saigon, and the
effect of reunification on the Vietnamese people are also discussed. An appendix contains a
summary of the Eleven Point Program Accords of January 1962 -

VIET CONG - A PHOTOGRAPHIC
PORTRAIT - Schiffer Publications - ISBN# 0764307584 -BRAND NEW Oversized
Hardcover in Dust Jacket - 200pp - The Viet Cong have long remained a mystery even to those
who fought against them during America's longest and most divisive war. They have been given
many acronyms and slang names by the American fighting men; included among them are V.C.,
Charlie and other less complimentary terms. They have been portrayed in many guises by the
American press and popular Hollywood films. None, however, have really addressed the Viet
Cong in human terms. This work will strip away the myth and mystery which surrounds the Viet
Cong and, through the medium of their own candid photography, present them in human terms.
They were everything we were - resourceful, cunning, adaptable, and most of all, human. As did
our own American soldiers, they endured life in some of the harshest, most inhospitable terrain
on earth. In doing so, they exhibited the will to sacrifice and be sacrificed for the collective goal
of unification. Little did they know that we were serving the hidden agenda of the Politburo in
Hanoi. In the end, they, like many of our soldiers, were betrayed and abandoned. This book
portrays the Viet Cong as seen through their own photography. A cultural obsession, photographs
were taken wherever and whenever possible. On many occasions, Allied forces were able to
capture such photos. It is from such sources that these photographs are made available, most for
the first time ever, to the general public - Overseas Shipping on this via Airmail Only! - Publisher's List Price = $39.95 - Our Price -

and various Eastern Bloc countries of the era) for their weapons and field gear. For this reason,
Vietnam represents a microcosm of gear from all of this century's wars, dating back to World
War I, as well as a wide range of improvised weapons and equipment. Nowhere is this more
apparent than in the variety of hand grenades used by the enemy, including Russian, Chinese,
North Korean, Eastern European, French, Japanese and even modified, captured U.S. grenades.
Although impossible to completely catalog the extreme variety of weapons and field gear used by
the PAVN and VC, author Edward Emering has made a determined effort to present a wide
overview of the weapons and field gear used from the late-1950s through the modern era. He has
been aided in his goal by obtaining access to the world class collection of the National Vietnam
Veterans Art Museum, located in Chicago, Illinois and by material from a number of extensive
private collections. This book will help both the serious collector as well as those individuals
interested in acquiring only a token piece of history to avoid potentially costly mistakes. A value
guide is included - OVERSEAS SHIPMENT BY AIRMAIL ONLY! -

NAVY MEDICINE IN VIETNAM - ORAL HISTORIES
FROM DIEN BIEN PHY TO THE FALL OF SAIGON - McFarland
Publishing - ISBN# 9780786439997 - BRAND NEW Laminated Hardcover - 357pp - Index -
Photos - Glossary - Notes - The book chronicles the story of the Navy Medical Department's
participation in Vietnam, beginning with the Navy's rescue of the French survivors of the Battle
of Dien Bien Phu in 1954 and ending with the Navy's rescue of Vietnamese refugees fleeing the
fall of South Vietnam in 1975. Even before Marines stepped ashore in 1965, Navy medicine had
established itself in South Vietnam, since two years earlier Navy medical personnel converted an
old Saigon apartment house into Station Hospital Saigon. When American involvement reached
its peak in 1968, the 750-bed Naval Support Activity Hospital Danang (NSAH) was in full
operation, and two hospital ships the USS Repose and the USS Sanctuary cruised offshore,
often only a 30-minute medevac flight from the battlefield. Whether the situation called for
saving the lives of injured sailors aboard a burning aircraft carrier or treating a critically wounded
Marine for shock in the rubble-strewn streets of Hue, Navy medical personnel were in Vietnam
from the beginning of American involvement to the very end. This book weaves their personal
experiences into the fabric of the Vietnam War, telling the story of the Navy Medical
Department's involvement through first-person accounts by patients and the Navy medical
personnel who served them, including physicians, dentists, nurses, and hospital corpsmen. More
than 50 historic photos document their work - Publisher's List Price =

LOST IN VIETNAM -Wesleyan Univ - ISBN#
0819569232 - BRAND NEW Hardcover in Dust Jacket - 266pp - Biblio - Notes - Photos - Two
days after Jill Hunting turned fifteen, she lost her only brother, a volunteer with International
Voluntary Services and one of the first civilian casualties of the Vietnam War. News broadcasts
and headlines announced to the world that Pete had been led into an ambush by friends. When
Jill's mother told her that Pete's letters home had all been destroyed in a basement flood, the
connection between Jill and her brother was lost forever or so she thought. Decades later, 175
letters surfaced. Through them, and the sweethearts and many friends who had never forgotten
Pete, Jill came to know him again.
Finding Pete is one of the great, untold true stories of an escalating war and a young man caught
in its sights. This personalized account of a critical moment in U.S. history is the moving story of
an altruistic youth who personifies what America lost in Vietnam. It is also a portrait of a
family's struggle with loss, a mother's damaging grief, and, most of all, a sister's quest to solve a
mystery and recover the connection with her brother. Includes a reader's guide -

with exotic plant and animal life, monsoon rains, harrowing reconnaissance missions and death.

Bird located in Binh Dinh Province on South Vietnam's eastern coast. Shortly after midnight,
three entire battalions of North Vietnamese regulars burst out of the darkened jungle and began
to swarm over the landing zone. The struggle for control lasted only about an hour. This book is
the
story of that hard fought battle and about the 150 GI's who repelled 800 heavily armed enemy
soldiers. Told by the man who pioneered the use of firsthand, on-the-scene interviews with men
who actually did the fighting, Bird is more gripping than any fictional account of the war in

Appendices - Glossary - This book is the day-by-day story of the Jumping Mustangs - 1st
Ballalion, Airborne, 8th Cavalry, of the 1st Air Cavalry Division, written by the man who knows
them best. 1st Air Cav Lieutenant Colonel Kenneth Mertel. On 1 July 1965, at Fort Benning,
Georgia, the 1st Air Cavalry Division was activated to employ newly developed techniques and
tactics, providing the utmost in combat effectiveness and flexibility. After telling of the
excitement at Benning over the formation of this revolutionary airmobile division, Colonel
Mertel gives a vivid picture of the building of his own Jumping Mustang Battalion, the rigorous
training of officers and men and, finally, the long voyage across the Pacific to Vietnam. Now the
test. Would the new concept of airmobility, so painstakingly worked out stateside, produce the
hoped-for results? The answer came quickly and dramatically in a rapid succession of search and
destroy operations. Ia Drang . . . An Khe South . . . Plei Mei . . . the Cambodian border . . . Bong
Son . . . Tarzan . . . In precipitous mountains, dense jungles, mud and water-filled rice paddles
and expanses of view-obstructing elephant grass, the Jumping Mustangs sought out the enemy,
engaging him in combat and stopping him in his tracks. Airmobility more than passed the test.
Colonel Mertel pays tribute to the many acts of heroism of his men, who lived, worked and
fought together in some of the world's most inhospitable conditions. He also writes movingly of
those who never came back. In 1967 the President, at a White House ceremony, recognized the
Division's success and valor by awarding it the Presidential Unit Citation for the action at Plei
Mei. According to the Chines calendar, 1966 was the "Year of the Horse." It was the "Year of the
Horse" for the Jumping Mustangs in Vietnam - Overseas Shipping on this via Airmail Only!-

INTRUDER: THE OPERATIONAL
HISTORY OF GRUMMAN'S A-6 - Schiffer Publications - ISBN# 0764321005 -
BRAND NEW Oversized Hardcover in dust jacket - 224pp - The legendary Grumman A-6
Intruder was born into battle, making its first deployment off the decks of the USS Independence
into Southeast Asia in 1966. For the next three decades, it was the main battery of the U.S. fleet
and the primary strike weapon for carrier aviation. The A-6 was the first true all-weather strike
aircraft in the Navy's inventory and carried a conventional bomb load second only to the B-52.
Covering both Navy and Marine Corps service, this is the operational history of the Intruder and
the Naval service's medium attack community told in the words of the men who flew it from
Vietnam to Desert Storm, and the numerous brush fire wars in between. Twelve chapters include
detailed descriptions of the Intruder's combat record in from its first deployment to Vietnam
through the design's retirement in 1997. Every fleet version of the aircraft, and each squadron
that flew the mighty A-6 are covered in detail. This book is heavily illustrated with photographs,
maps and detailed appendices including squadron histories, deployments, production details and
airframe losses. The authors, both carrier-experienced flyers, bring the exploits of the Intruder to
life in the words of aircraft's aircrew. This work is the most comprehensive operational history
yet produced on this true classic of Naval Aviation - OVERSEAS SHIPMENT BY AIRMAIL

WAR - Schiffer Publications - ISBN#
0764317911 - BRAND NEW Oversized Hardcover in dust jacket - 208pp - Over 300 Black &
White and Color Photos - Through its remarkable service during the war in Southeast Asia, the
Skyraider became legendary. It served with distinction in the hands of U.S. Navy, U.S. Air Force,
and South Vietnamese Air Force pilots, who took the war to the enemy, often at low altitude and
in the face of devastating antiaircraft fire. And it suffered heavy losses. The Skyraider's versatility
and the mettle of its pilots were unmatched. This book takes not only a look at an old airplane,
but at the warriors who flew and maintained the machine they called the "Spad." This volume
captures the essence of combat in the Spad, and explains the broad range of Spad operations. The
text, which is rich with the narratives of Spad pilots and ground crew, is complemented by over
300 original photographs, seventy emblems, and detailed listings of every Skyraider that flew in
the war, and the colorful units to which they were assigned. This fascinating volume is a must for

207pp - Drafted in October 1968, John A. Nesser left behind his wife and young son to fight in
the controversial Vietnam War. Like many in his generation, he was deeply at odds with himself
over the U.S. involvement in Vietnam, instilled with a strong sense of duty to his country but
uncertain about its mission and his role in it. Nesser was deployed to the Ashau Valley, site of
some of the war's heaviest fighting, and served eight months as an infantry rifleman before
transferring to become a door gunner for a Chinook helicopter. In this stirring memoir, he recalls
in detail the exhausting missions in the mountainous jungle, the terror of walking into an
ambush, the dull-edged anxiety that filled quiet days, and the steady fear of being shot out of the
sky. The accounts are richly illustrated with Nesser's own photographs of the military firebases
and aircraft, the landscapes, and the people he encountered - Publisher's List

The author was born in 1940 and spent his childhood in two small villages, the paternal and the
maternal, in southern Vietnam: Binh Chuan and Tuy An (An Phu). The villages were deeply
affected by the powerful political events of the next fifty years. In this memoir (first sentence: "I
was born as the Japanese Troops were invading northern Vietnam"), the author writes of what he
saw, heard and knew, providing an invaluable social history of the country. Readers will learn
about a people who have endured separation, dictatorship, carnage, persistent suffering and
poverty, all the while yearning for independence and prosperity. Included are many
stories some funny, some heartbreaking that reveal how the Vietnamese people lived, as well
as their thoughts on war, on the French, Japanese and Americans, on the Nationalist and
Communist governments, and on escape. The result is a heartfelt "social painting" of the nation

force in Vietnam, the forerunner of today's Delta Force and Navy SEALs. Exceptionally skilled
Green Berets, they were the most highly decorated unit in the war. Always outnumbered-often by
as much as 100 to 1-SOG commandos matched wits in the most dangerous environments with an
unrelenting foe that hunted them with trackers and dogs. Ten entire teams disappeared and
another fourteen were annihilated. In "Secret Commandos", John Plaster tells of his own
remarkable covert activities in SOG from 1969 to 1971, as well as those of dozens of his
comrades, vividly describing these unique warriors who gave everything fighting for their
country-and for each other- $35

THE FIRST MARINE CAPTURED IN VIETNAM: A
BIOGRAPHY OF DONALD G. COOK - McFarland Publishing - ISBN#
9780786428045 - BRAND NEW Laminated Softcover - 326PP - Index -
Photos - Biblio - Colonel Donald Gilbert Cook was the first U.S. Marine captured in Vietnam;
the first and only Marine in history to earn the Medal of Honor while in captivity; and the first
Marine POW to have a U.S. Navy ship named in his honor, the USS Donald Cook (DDG-75).
On December 31, 1964, while serving as an observer with a South Vietnamese Marine Corps
battalion on a combat operation against Viet Cong forces, he was captured near the village of
Binh Gia in South Vietnam. Until his death in captivity in December 1967, Cook led ten POWs
in a series of primitive jungle camps. His leadership and adherence to the U.S. Military Code of
Conduct earned him the nation's highest military award, but Cook never received historical
attention commensurate with his enormous accomplishments. This is the first book-length
biography of Colonel Donald G. Cook. With background information on Cook's life and prewar
career, the book concentrates especially on his three years in captivity, and is the first book
exclusively about a Marine POW held in South Vietnam. It covers the ten other POWs under his
command, including Sgt. Harold George Bennett (the first American POW executed in Vietnam)
and Sgt. Isaac Camacho (the first American POW to escape in Vietnam). The author outlines the
circumstances surrounding Cook's Medal of Honor citation and death. Throughout, Cook's
adherence to the Corps' traditional leadership principles and knowledge of the Code of Conduct
are highlighted, and his biography is a unique case study of exemplary leadership under
extremely difficult conditions. Nearly 70 photographs are included. -

surrounded by rivers, streams and roads. The "Island" traditionally served as a staging area for
NVA units preparing for future attacks on the Da Nang area. News of upcoming operations in
this sector always brought fear and anticipation for the forthcoming battle, as everyone knew that
the enemy would be engaged on his own turf. The battles for this prized sector were fought time
and again by many units: operation Allen Brook, operation Meade River, and operation
Pipestone Canyon. Operation Allen Brook is representative of all these battles and serves as a
tribute to all Vietnam Marines. This book takes the reader from the emergency formation of a
Marine battalion at Camp Pendleton, California, to the battlefields of Vietnam where they slowly
honed their war skills before joining the battle on Go Noi Island. Individual Marines describe the
events and their feelings in their own words - $39.95

notes, bibliography, index - Despite their insistence that the complete withdrawal of U.S. troops
was the condition for the release of prisoners of war, the Democratic Republic of Vietnam took
little action to account for American POWs at the end of the Vietnam War. Almost two decades
would pass following the end of the war before significant internal political changes, shifting
regional alignments, changing Western interests, Sino-Soviet rapprochement, a nonmilitary
settlement of the Cambodian conflict, and the collapse of the Soviet Union would bring Hanoi to
the point of recognizing the importance of mending its relationship with the West. From the Paris
peace talks to the U.S. government's decision in 1994 to lift the trade embargo against Vietnam,
Hanoi's policy on American MIAs and POWs is examined, with particular focus on the influence
of individual decision-makers on the process and the ways the Vietnamese leadership arrived at
their negotiating strategies. - Publisher's List Price = $25 - Our Price - $22

Cover) - 288pp - Notes - Biblio - Index - Photos - The 199th Light Infantry Brigade was created
from three U.S. infantry battalions of long lineage, as a fast reaction force for the U.S. to place in
Indochina. As the book begins, in December 1967, the brigade has been in Vietnam for a year,
and many of its battered 12-month men are returning home. This is timely, as the Communists
seem to be in a lull, and the brigade commander, in order to whet his new soldiers to combat,
requests a transfer to a more active sector, just above Saigon. Through January the battalions
scour the sector, finding increasing enemy strength, NVA personel now mixed within Viet Cong
units. But the enemy is lying low, and a truce has even been declared for the Vietnamese New
Year, the holiday called Tet. On January 30, 1968, the storm breaks loose, as Saigon and nearly
every provincial capital in the country is overrun by VC and NVA, bursting in unexpected
strength from their base camps. In these battles we learn the most intimate details of combat, as
the Communists fight with rockets, mortars, Chinese claymores, mines, machine guns and
AK-47s. The battles evolve into an enemy favoring the cloak of night, the jungle both urban
and natural and subterranean fortifications, against U.S. forces favoring direct confrontational
battle supported by air and artillery. When the lines are only 25 yards apart, however, there is
little way to distinguish between the firepower or courage of the assailants and the defenders, or
even who is who at any given moment, as both sides have the other in direct sight. Many of the
vividly described figures in this book do not make it to the end. The narrative is jarring, because
even though the author was a company commander during these battles, he has based this work
upon objective research including countless interviews with other soldiers of the 199th LIB. The
result is that everything we once heard about Vietnam is laid bare in this book through actual
experience, as U.S. troops go head-to-head at close-range against their counterparts, perhaps the
most stubborn foe in our history - Publisher's List Price = $32.95 -

FIELDS OF FIRE : THE CLASSIC NOVEL OF THE
VIETNAM WAR - Naval Institute
Press - ISBN # 1557509638 -BRAND NEW Softcover - 344pp - Glossary - Hailed as the most
important novel to emerge from the Vietnam War when first published in 1978, this book
launched a spectacular writing career for James Webb that now includes four bestselling novels.
A much-decorated former Marine who fought and was wounded in Vietnam, Webb tells the story
of a platoon of tough, young Marines enduring the tropical hell of Southeast Asian jungles while
facing an invisible enemy--in a war no one understands. Filled with the sounds and smells of
combat, it is nevertheless a book about people, an amazing variety of closely observed characters
caught up in circumstances beyond their control. It is a powerful work that brilliantly expresses
the basic ambiguity of war: the repulsion of war's destruction contrasted with the grisly attraction
of war as the ultimate test of survival. Critics have compared this bestselling first novel to All
Quiet on the Western Front and The Naked and the Dead, among other masterpieces, for
authentically capturing the fury and agony of combat. This is the real war in Vietnam, told
without histrionics or self pity. For many years the novel has been a part of the recommended
reading list of the Commandant of the U.S. Marine Corps.- Publisher's List

ELEVEN BRAVO: A SKYTROOPER'S MEMOIR OF
WAR IN VIETNAM - McFarland Publishing - ISBN# 0786419164 - BRAND NEW
Laminated Softcover - 282PP - Index - Biblio - Photos - Illustrations - The author served in
Vietnam from May 1969 through April 1970. During those 11 months, he wrote an estimated
750-800 letters home. This memoir is based on those letters, which recounted the details of his
experiences and also served as an outlet where he could express the terror, tedium and even
boredom of his daily life while in Vietnam. It tells the story of the Vietnam War as this foot
soldier viewed it from the jungle, as both a rifleman and a combat medic who was forced to learn
his medical skills under fire, and who later became a personal waiter in the private mess hall of
Major General E.B. Roberts, the Commanding General of the 1st Cavalry Division (Air Mobile).
The story begins with a record of Wise's military history, his training as an infantryman in
Leesville, Louisiana and his arrival in Vietnam on May 2, 1969. Chapter two details his first
experience under enemy fire on May 11, when suicide squads penetrated their perimeter with the
purpose of inflicting the maximum amount of damage with disregard to even the attackers' own
lives. Chapters five and six recount the August 1969 battle of LZ Becky, a landing zone that was
constructed just south of the Cambodian border and was destroyed only four weeks later. Chapter
seven relates Wise's experiences after receiving a job as a waiter in the Commander General's
mess hall. On April 9, 1970, his service ended and he headed home. The book contains diagrams
of several battles and the author's personal photographs taken while he was in the jungle and in
the rear echelon area of Phuoc Vinh - Publisher's List Price = $35
