Now I was twenty-five hours out from Seattle, and on the verge of experiencing the Vietnam War at first hand. It was the fifth of July 1967. Vietnam stunk. Literally. After the unbelievable heat, the smell was the first thing you noticed, dank and moldy, like a basement that had repeatedly flooded and only partially dried. Or like a crypt… The staff sergeant was a character straight out of Central Casting, half full of deep South gruffness and Dixie grizzle, the other half full of shit. He paced back and forth while we stood in formation in the hot sand. “Welcome to II Corps, Republic of Vet-nam,” he said. Then he gave us the finger. “Take a good look at it, boys.

  • North Vietnam, April 1967
    Buy Now! WHAT IF? Home Invasion: North Vietnam, April 1967 By David R. Higgins One such was the “enclave strate- gy.” The idea behind that was US forces would dig in at several coastal bases, hold them against all attacks and use those positions as bargaining chips to get communist leaders in Hanoi to negotiate. Westmoreland concluded the enclave strategy would do nothing more than cede the strategic initiative to the enemy while also negating American operational superiority in firepower and maneuverability. The strategy he eventually settled on was a compromise between military realities and political constraints: US forces would establish Search for Strategy bases throughout the country and use them to launch attacks against n March 1965, President Lyndon general communist advance during by keeping the enemy off balance in NVA and VC main force units.
