Produktinformasjon
Initially stationed at the U.S. Army''s counterintelligence headquarters in Saigon, David Noble was sent north to launch the army''s first covert intelligence-gathering operation in Vietnam''s Central Highlands. Living in the region of the Montagnards--Vietnam''s indigenous tribal people, deemed critical to winning the war--Noble documented strategic hamlets and Green Beret training camps, where Special Forces teams taught the Montagnards to use rifles rather than crossbows and spears. In this book, he relates the formidable challenges he confronted in the course of his work. Weaving together memoir, excerpts from letters written home, and photographs, Noble''s compelling narrative throws light on a little-known corner of the Vietnam War in its early years--before the Tonkin Gulf Resolution and the deployment of combat units--and traces his transformation from a novice intelligence agent and believer in the war to a political dissenter and active protester.
