The Battle For Khe Sanh.
Washington DC: U.S. Marine Corps, 1969. First Printing of the First Edition. A Very Good Plus copy in illustrated wraps with a small chip missing from the backstrip. No hardcover edition was issued. This is the story of the defenders of Khe Sanh--and the epic 77-day struggle which not only denied the North Vietnamese Army a much needed victory but reaffirmed to the world the intention of the United States to hold the line in Southeast Asia. In addition to having been a contest of men and machines, this was the test of a nation's will. As a history, this work is not intended to prove any point, but rather to record objectively the series of events which came to be called the Battle of Khe Sanh. These events spanned a period from April 1967 to April 1968. Uncommon. Item #26975
