battles, and the emotional impact on the combatants. It is replete with
leadership lessons as well as valuable insights that are just as applicable
today as they were 40 years ago.
This is an anecdotal history of America’s war in Vietnam composed
of firsthand narratives by Vietnam War veterans presented in chronological
order. They are intense, emotional, and highly personal stories. Connecting each
of them is a brief historical commentary of that period of the war, the
geography of the story, and the contemporary strategy written by Dr. Lewis 'Bob'
Sorley, West Point class of 1956, and author of
A Better War.
Valor in Vietnam presents an historical
overview of the war through the eyes of participants in each branch of service
and throughout the entire course of the war. Simply put, their stories serve to
reflect the commitment, honour and dedication with which America’s
veterans performed their service.
