About This Item
A Noble Cause: American Battlefield Victories in Vietnam by Douglas Niles
Celebrating the skill and bravery of the United States armed forces and their South Vietnamese allies, A Noble Cause presents a gripping chronicle of both large-and small-unit successful combat engagements, including the Battle of Ia Drang Valley (1965), the first major ground battle of the Vietnam War; the Battle of Loc Ninh (1967) by the Cambodian border; the Battle of Khe Sanh (1967-1968 leading up to the Tet Offensive; the Battle of Dong Ha (1968); the bloody siege on Hamburger Hill (1969); and the Battle of An Loc (1972), sixty-five miles north of Saigon, which contributed to the failure of the Vietcong's Eastertide Offensive.
Documenting the invaluable role of a tireless and determined infantry, as well as air cavalry divisions and B-52 "Arc Light" air strikes, chronicles the crucial strategic decisions that led to victory -- often against steep odds -- and honors the bravery of every soldier who stood his ground, faced the enemy, and gave his all.
THERE IS A RED "CLOSEOUT/REMAINDER" MARK ON THE BOTTOM PAGE EDGES.
