The Ravens. The Men Who Flew in America's Secret War in Laos.

198727886New York:: Crown 1987. First Printing of the First Edition. A Fine copy in a Fine dust jacket. The Ravens were American forward air-controllers who directed strikes from vulnerable low-flying spotter planes mainly in support of a Meo general named Vang Pao in Laos. "Advised" by the CIA this fierce warlord fought to keep the North Vietnamese out of the strategic Plain of Jars. Robbins Air America conveys the unique flavor of Raven-style combat and also explains how the diplomatic-military dynamics of the clandestine war in Laos fit into the overall American effort in Southeast Asia. The cast of characters is memorable: a swaggering rowdy bunch of mavericks whom their parent service the U.S. Air Force had great difficulty controlling they seemed to get by on sheer cussedness. According to the author they suffered the highest casualty rate of the Indochinese War. Robbins describes the poignant plight of displaced Meo/Hmong tribespeople who have settled uneasily in the United Statesincluding General Paoand their ongoing struggle to "propitiate the alien spirits of America."

The Prisoners of Quai Dong

196762710New York: New American Library 1967. First Edition. First Printing. 8vo. 22cm x 15cm. Publisher's black cloth. Dustjacket. Titled in silver gilt to spine clean and sharp in a strong and bright example of the dustjacket slight scuffing and edgewear. A near fine copy. 214pp. Internally clean. Highly controversial upon its publication and asking a number of questions that its 1967 readers clearly weren't comfortable discovering the answers to Kolpacoff's novel deals with a nightmarish situation in which a disgraced US soldier's refusal to fight lands him in a brutal prison camp. He is offered reinstatement if he participates in the interrogation and torture of a 17 year old Vietcong prisoner in a claustrophobic jungle hut with four other men all of whom possess varying reasons and motivations for being there but who are all simply through association equally damned. Kolpacoff was never in Vietnam which seems immaterial to the main question posed by this his first novel; it is not so much what we are doing to our enemies but what are we doing to ourselves New American Library unknown

The Open invasion of the Republic of Viet-Nam by Communist North Viet-Nam

197267771Saigon Republic of Viet-Nam: Ministry of Foreign Affairs 1972. Presumed first edition/first printing. Wraps. Good. Format is approximately 8.25 inches by 10.5 inches. Unpaginated by 32 pages plus covers. Decorative cover.with some color. Illustrations Maps color. This contemporary propaganda material is ephemeral and relatively few copies have survived in private hands in the more than four decades since it was published. From Wikipedia: "South Vietnam officially the Republic of Vietnam was a state which governed southern Vietnam until 1975. It received international recognition in 1949 as the "State of Vietnam" 1949-55 and later as the "Republic of Vietnam" 1955-75. The term "South Vietnam" became common usage in 1954. South Vietnam's origins can be traced to the French colony of Cochinchina a subdivision of French Indochina. After World War II the Vietminh led by Ho Chi Minh proclaimed the establishment of a Communist nation in Hanoi. In 1949 non-communist Vietnamese politicians formed a rival government in Saigon led by former emperor Bao Dai. Bao Dai was deposed by Prime Minister Ngo Dinh Diem in 1955 who proclaimed himself president after a referendum. After Diem was deposed in a military coup in 1963 there was a series of military governments. General Nguyen Van Thieu led the country from 1967 until 1975. The Vietnam War began in 1959 with an uprising by Viet Cong forces. Fighting climaxed during the Tet Offensive of 1968 when there were over 1.5 million South Vietnamese soldiers and 500000 U.S. soldiers in South Vietnam. Despite a peace treaty concluded in January 1973 fighting continued until the North Vietnamese army overran Saigon on 30 April 1975." This document from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was aimed as the English-speaking audience was was aimed at rallying support against the North Vietnamese onslaught. Had it not been for the U.S. Air Force and Navy the Vietnam War might have ended in the spring of 1972 with North Vietnamese tanks in the streets of Saigon. On March 29 1972 fourteen North Vietnamese divisions backed by more than three hundred tanks crossed the Demilitarized Zone into South Vietnam. It was an assault every bit as ferocious as the Tet Offensive in 1969 and perhaps even more so: where Tet had been an uprising by Viet Cong guerrillas backed by regular North Vietnamese troops the Easter Offensive of 1972 was a blitzkrieg a conventional mechanized assault by troops well-equipped with armor artillery and antiaircraft weapons. Several North Vietnamese Army or NVA divisions crossed the DMZ into the northern tip of South Vietnam. Other forces struck from their bases in ostensibly neutral Cambodia into the southwest part of South Vietnam perilously close to Saigon. Unlike Tet the South Vietnamese army or ARVN would not have U.S. ground troops fighting beside them or instead of them. American advisers could assist the South Vietnamese but with America in the midst of withdrawing its ground troops and the American public tired of casualties ground combat units would not be committed to the battlefield. The ARVN would have to fight its own battle. The key northern border town of Quang Tri fell and the NVA advanced to the gates to the vital city of Hue. The ARVN and South Vietnam were in trouble. Then salvation came from the skies. Airpower had always been a key factor—actually the key factor—factor in America's favor during the war in Indochina. But this time it was the only politically feasible means by which the United States could aid South Vietnam in 1972. By that time the American air fleet in Southeast Asia had dwindled to about eight hundred combat aircraft in Vietnam and Thailand including two U.S. Navy carrier air wings. Illustrating the flexibility of airpower by the end of May an additional four hundred Air Force fighters had arrived plus four more carriers. Most significantly the aerial armada included more than two hundred B-52s. Ministry of Foreign Affairs paperback
