This book celebrates the achievements in Viet Nam of the US Special
Forces soldiers, popularly known as "The Green Berets." These are
America's finest warriors, our elite force who fuse military and
civil skills in a new form of victorious warfare. This book focuses
on Viet Nam during 1968 and 1969, the two most crucial years of
that conflict. The Berets learned many lessons in Viet Nam. Not
only are these historically interesting, but they are the keys to
success in our Global War on Terrorism. The first lesson emphasizes
the proper advisory relationships that must exist when our American
military train and work with the military of other coalition
nations. The second lesson stresses the need for the integration of
the military and civilian sides of any war. Little is accomplished
if bloody battles only result in producing more enemy. Rather our
strategies must combine appropriate military measures with
psychological operations and civic actions that win over nonaligned
groups, and attract even hostile forces. The third lesson demands
mutual and unwavering loyalty between America's forces and those
they train and advise. An enemy has no greater weapon than to boast
that Americans will eventually grow weary and desert their friends
while the enemy will always endure. The fourth lesson calls for our
American military to know how to work with others, not merely in
spite of differences, but actually appreciating and building upon
this diversity of races, religions, cultures, political views, and
tribal backgrounds. I am positive that the reader will find many
more lessons from the accomplishments of the Green Berets related
in this book.
