FIGHTING IN VIETNAM: Experiences of the US Soldier by Westheider 2011 PB 1Ed/1

Description: FIGHTING IN VIETNAM: Experiences of the US Soldier, Stackpole Military History Series by James Westheider. NEW First Edition unstated, full number line paperback, 2011. The Vietnam War differed from previous American wars of the 20th century, as it was an undeclared and limited war that divided the country and was fought disproportionately by minorities and working-class whites, many of whom did not want to serve. This is the story of the men and women who participated in this generation-defining conflict overseas and stateside -a war of search-and-destroy missions and combat with an ill-defined enemy, but also a war of drug use, fragging, and antiwar protests. With sweeping scope and careful detail, the author captures the many dimensions of what it was like to fight in the Vietnam War. Based on primary sources, the topics include combat, life in camp, food, R&R, the draft, the antiwar movement, and more. Excellent overview. NEW First Edition unstated, full number line paperback, unread with pages and edges clean and unmarked. Binding tight with spine uncreased. Cover shows no edge or corner wear and no scuffing or rubbing. Not a remainder. 6" x 9." Timeline, map, photos, and text. 217 pgs.
