Description
The Tunnels of Cu Chi: A Remarkable Story of War in Vietnam The 200-mile labyrinth of underground tunnels and secret chambers around Saigon became the battleground, barracks, arms factories, and hospitals of the Viet Cong during the Vietnam War. The US infantrymen, known as 'Tunnel Rats', fought a desperate and brutal campaign against the cunning and ingenious enemy. Armed with little more than knives and pistols, the Tunnel Rats faced a cruel and treacherous foe in the dark, booby-trapped tunnels. The Viet Cong had transformed the underground network into a complex and deadly environment, where the ground above was pounded by American shells and bombs. This book tells the story of the Tunnel Rats and their remarkable struggle against the Viet Cong, a testament to the bravery and skill of the US soldiers who fought in one of the most infamous and challenging battles of the Vietnam War.
