This volume contains the stories of 14 men that fought in the Vietnam War, in branches of the U.S. military and the Australian Army. The first begins in February 1962, with a U.S. Air Force pilot that trained South Vietnamese flyers and flew covert air support for South Vietnam's military. The final story is told by a U.S. civilian who worked, beginning in 1966, for the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID); the Chieu Hoi Program, in II Corps; CORDS; ICEX; and the Phoenix Program. Other stories, in this volume, include those of a U.S. Marine infantryman and a U.S. Navy jet-fighter pilot that endured horrendous conditions as POWs. Volumes 1-4 of this series contain combat experiences told by 57 Vietnam War veterans. Volume 4 also contains information about the armed forces of nations allied with the U.S. that fought against North Vietnam. Volume 5 contains a review of the war and U.S. armed forces in it, POW treatment, MIAs, the CIA and the drug trade, war crimes, PTSD, moral injury, and history lessons not learned. It also contains a brief photo overview of some events in South Vietnam, in 1968, a decisive year in the war.
