On his second tour in Vietnam, U.S. Army Captain John Haseman
served 18 months as a combat advisor in the Mekong Delta's Kien Hoa
Province. His detailed memoir gives one of the few accounts of a
district-level advisor's experiences at the "point of the spear."
Often the only American going into combat with his South Vietnamese
counterparts, Haseman highlights the importance of trust and
confidence between advisors and their units and the courage of the
men he fought with during the 1972 North Vietnamese summer
offensive. Among the last advisors to leave the field, Haseman
describes the challenges of supporting his counterparts with fewer
and fewer resources, and the emotional conclusion of an advisory
mission near the end of the Vietnam War.
