This is one the best books you'll read about the Vietnam War. You'll learn how six U.S. Presidents knew the dire need to protect South Vietnam from Communism. You'll see how the betrayal by politicians, media, academia, and draft-dodgers influenced public opinion and the war's conclusion.
Learn some philosophies of war and trace the evolution of the horse cavalry to helicopter cavalry to Air Cavalry as it became a dominant factor in Vietnam and influenced multifarious helicopter uses (military and domestic) today. Anti-war protests were the icon of the Vietnam War which was actually two wars. One raged in Vietnam and one raged at home in the living rooms of the U.S. public through television as "the times were a changing." A detailed inventory of various antiwar organizations and their activities is included. Relive the personal experience of a combat platoon leader with the 1st Air Cavalry in Vietnam during Tet 1968 through his diary and media publications regarding the siege of Khe Sanh.
You'll learn about the U.S. military battles' successes and how they achieved "peace with honor" during their tour of duty. Compare the military actions in Iraq and Afghanistan to Vietnam and consider the merits of each. Unfortunately, three generations after the Vietnam War, we know almost nothing about Vietnam as those who portrayed its history did not treat the U.S. military well. Yet, they were great warriors and had a just cause. If you are interested in history, the military, and geopolitics, and want to know the truth about the Vietnam War, this book is for you. You won't get this perspective anywhere else.
