Download or read book The Vietnamese Air Force 1951 1975 an Analysis of Its Role in Combat and Fourteen Hours at Koh Tang written by A. J. C Lavalle and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2012-05-25 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manuscript presents an objective review of the South Vietnamese Air Force (VNAF) and the role played by the U.S. Air Force in the VNAF's short 14-year life span. To provide the necessary perspective to this complex project, the author presents a comparative analysis of successes and failures of airpower during the three major enemy offensives of 1968, 1972 and 1975. The conclusions touch upon some of the most fundamental doctrinal principles of airpower and highlight areas that must be carefully considered in any future employment. These two monographs provide the student of airpower with an excellent case study in the tactical employment of air resources at two widely separated points in the spectrum of conflict. For the general reader, they provide a vivid and substantive discussion on the use of combat air power and should give some understanding of the magnitude and complexity of an airpower operation, large or small.

This book was released on 1985 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a continuing effort to document the use of airpower in Southeast Asia, the Office of Air Force History presents in this volume two major contributions to the "airpower story." Monograph 4, "The Vietnamese Air Force, 1951-1975, An Analysis of its Role in Combat," was written by General William W. Momyer, USAF (Ret), former commander of air forces in Vietnam. It presents an objective review of the South Vietnamese Air Force (VNAF) and the role played by the U.S. Air Force in VNAF's short 14-year life span. To provide the necessary perspective to this complex subject, the author presents a comparative analysis of the successes and failures of airpower during the three major enemy offensives: the Tet offensive of 1968, the North Vietnamese offensive of Easter 1972, and the March 1975 offensive. The conclusions touch upon some of the fundamental doctrinal principles of airpower and highlight areas that must be carefully considered in any future employment. The events presented in Monograph 5, written by Thomas D. Des Brisay, although not directly related to the war in Vietnam, took place in Southeast Asia, and were performed by the same men, organizations, and machines which fought so gallantly in that war. It is almost a step-by-step account of the "Mayaguez Affair" and the role of airpower in its successful outcome. Particular emphasis is given to the courage and determination of the young helicopter pilots during the delivery and recovery of U.S. Marines from Kho Tang Island. These two monographs provide the student of airpower with an excellent case study in the tactical employment of air resources at two widely separated points in the spectrum of conflict. For the general reader, they provide a vivid and substantive discussion on the use of combat airpower and should give some understanding of the magnitude and complexity of any airpower operation, large or small.

Download or read book The Free Sea written by James Kraska and published by Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2018-06-15 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Free Sea offers a unique, single-volume analysis of incidents in American history that affected U.S. freedom of navigation at sea. The book spans more than 200 years, beginning in the Colonial era with the Quasi-War with France in 1798 and extending to contemporary Freedom of Navigation operations in the South China Sea. Through wars and numerous crises with North Korea, North Vietnam, Cambodia, Iran, Russia and China, freedom of navigation has been a persistent challenge for the United States, a nation reliant on open seas for economic prosperity, military security and global order. This volume focuses on the struggle to retain freedom of the seas. Challenges to U.S. warships and maritime commerce have pushed, and continue to challenge, the United States to vindicate its rights through diplomatic, legal, and military means, underscoring the need for the strategic resolve in the global maritime commons.
