Recondo: LRRPs in the 101st Airborne Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Author Larry Chambers vividly describes the guts and courage it took to pass the though volunteer-only training program in Nha Tarng to be part of the 5th Special Forces Recondo School, the hair-raising graduation mission to scout out, locate, and out-guerilla the NVA. Here is an unforgettable account that follows Chambers and the Rangers every step of the way--from joining, going through Recondo, and finally leading his own team on white-knuckle missions through the jungle hell of Vietnam.

Synopsis:

A graduate of the volunteer-only training program in Nha Trang for the Fifth Special Forces tells how he was trained to survive Long Range Patrol missions in the jungle hell of Vietnam. Reprint.
