Vietnam Infantry Tactics by Gordon L Rottman

"Vietnam infantry tactics".

"I have respect for most Osprey publications, but this one is in a class of its own" -- Miniature Wargames ."..[looks] at the war from both perspectives - the US and the Viet Cong. As a result, it is possible to compare the differing tactics adopted by each side. This is an ideal book for anyone who wants to understand what happened on the ground during the Vietnam War. Well researched, and well written, it will be of interest no matter how little or how much knowledge you have of this war." -Angela Youngman, www.monstersandcritics.com
