Vietnam The Naval Story (1986) By Frank Uhlig Jr.
 
The fifteen eyewitness commentaries on U.S. naval operations in Vietnam that form the core of this essay collection represent the first serious attempts to describe the naval side of the war. Editor Frank Uhlig commissioned each essay after traveling to Vietnam during the war years to determine for himself what was happening and who was most qualified to describe it. The individuals he selected are chiefly the men who did what they wrote about." Content Chapters include: The Choice Taken: The Aerial Bombardment of North Vietnam * Half an Amphibious Force at War: The Marines in I Corps * A Novel Role: The Logistic Support of a Major Campaign Ashore * Fighting Where the Ground Was a Little Damp: The War on the Coast and in the Rivers * The Merchant Marine: The Last Satisfactory Solution?
