The book is about all units of the 1/5 Infantry Division
and their operations in South Vietnam with limited emphasis
on C/1-11 Infantry that the book was originally based on
to demonstrate documentation research (10 pages plus 4 pages
of 11th Infantry Regiment history). The book has color maps.
It is also of interest to the Army's 23rd Infantry Division
(Americal), the 101st Airborne Division (Airmobile), 1st
Cavalry Division (Airmobile) and U.S. Marines, Navy and
Air Force unit personnel as well as units of the South Vietnamese
Army who served in Quang Tri Province. Half the book is
transcribed military documents (mostly Combat After Action
Reports from Task Forces and Division and Operational Reports--Lessons
Learned) covering the entire tour of the 1/5 Infantry Division
and their organic, assigned and attached units with them
there.
This is a serious reference and research tool for studying
military operations in Vietnam that is of interest to anyone
interested in military history and especially to those who
served who are interested in reconstructing the chronology
and the events of their tours and where they were on combat
operations through the factual evidence found in the documents.
More than this, it is the legacy left for the families of
those who had loved ones who made the ultimate sacrifice,
and for the rest of us who served and our families and this
country.
The book is copyrighted and is 312 numbered pages, 8-1/2"
x 11" with a 1" spiral binding that makes the
book easier to use, durable and long lasting through heavy
use beyond the "perfect" or "tape and paste"
type bindings.
