Infantry in Vietnam: Small Unit Actions in the Early Days 1965-66

From the back cover: "It was called a 'Platoon Leader's War.' It was like like no other was America had ever fought--beneath the dense canopy of jungle, in underground tunnels and foxholes, against an unseen, elusive enemy. Vietnam was not a 'general's' war fought on the grand scale, but one which placed a premium on individual and small unit actions; one which daily created new tactics like 'organic fire support' and 'counterambushes,' not only to survive but to reverse the roles and take initiative. Written by the officers in command of the companies and platoons involved, Infantry in Vietnam analyzes the small unit discipline, initiative, perseverance, physical conditioning, morale and esprit which carried the war in the early days."
