Beschreibung
Although the thick jungles and mountainous regions of Vietnam make the country less than ideal for armoured operations, the tank and other tracked vehicles played extraordinary roles in the long, costly conflict that persisted in the country for three decades. Wheeled trucks, jeeps, and other vehicles provided mobility and transport as well, some of them already proven in earlier wars, while others were adapted and experimental. Vehicles of the Vietnam War explores these marvels of mechanisation and their respective roles through the years that culminated in the iconic image of a Viet Cong tank crashing through the gates of the presidential palace in Saigon on April 30, 1975. This account of the origins, attributes, and deployment of tracked and wheeled vehicles of the Vietnam conflict is not to be missed.
