A Year in the Life of a Vietnam Adviser

By Edward Bowman

Book Overview

"During 1965-66, the first great buildup of American military commenced. The number of enemy contact incidents increased, as did the number of casualties. The ARVN were stretched to the limit, with the training of its junior officers limited. Special Forces units in remote areas recruited and trained the local hill people, referring to them as the Popular Forces. Brutalities such as torture and executions by sections of troops from both sides were not unusual."--
