Description
Combat Operations Taking The Offensive: October 1966 to October 1967 by George L. MacGarrigle provides an in-depth look at a pivotal year in the Vietnam War. By late 1966, the US troop buildup had reached a critical point, enabling General Westmoreland to take the initiative from the enemy for the first time. The war effort was poised on the cusp of significant progress, but this would not be a swift victory. Instead, it would be a prolonged test of the Army's abilities and America's staying power in a war of attrition. As North Vietnam stepped up its infiltration efforts, the insurgency in South Vietnam remained a cornerstone of Communist strategy, while main force military operations gained prominence. This volume examines how both sides fared during this critical year, offering valuable insights into the complexities of the conflict.
