Description

A.J.C. Lavalle (ed); William V. McBride (fr). Since 1969, Pres. Nixon had gradually disengaged American ground forces in Vietnam, & an accelerated plan for “Vietnamizing” U.S. war roles had taken form. The U.S. remained determined to avoid further new commitments of U.S. ground forces. In 1972 N. Vietnamese Gen. Vo Nguyen Giap bid for victory, gambling the full strength of the N. Vietnamese Army & its weaponry. Allied officers agreed that an early offensive was possible, likely in the middle of Feb., & Nixon’s scheduled visit to the China. This monograph recounts the myriad of widely separate but not unrelated events & operations that took place during the spring invasion of 1972. Illustrated.
