  On behalf of Boston Publishing Company, it gives me great pleasure to send you Setting the Stage. I hope that you receive as much enjoyment from reading it as we had preparing it for you. Vietnam. For more than a decade, news from that far-off country dominated the headlines and, for many of us, our lives. Daily events from mysterious-sounding cities like Da Nang, Kontum, and Hue blazed across newspapers while evening newscasts related the latest casualty figures, battles, and peace talk developments. Over three million Americans traveled halfway across the world to fight in Vietnam while many more participated in the decision making and demonstrations at home.

  内容简介：

  Only three weeks earlier Washington had come to the conclusion that the U.S.-sponsored regime of Ngo Dinh Diem could not survive the mounting military and political pressure of the Vietcong insurgents without substantially increased military aid and ex- pertise. Fending off requests from Saigon and from his own advisers for an American combat task force, President John Kennedy had agreed to dispatch mili- tary personnel and equipment for advisory and com- bat support duties. During the next twelve months American men and machines would help halt the in- surgent advance and, at least for a moment, seem to turn the tide of war for the first time in Saigon s favor.

  内容简介：

  Airborne Brigade landed in Vung Tau, at the mouth of the Saigon River. They would ~oen establish their headquarters at Bien Hoa, twelve miles north of Saigon, guarding the airfield there. At the same time, the marines were establishing their third tactical area of responsibility (TAOR) at a newly constructed airfield in Chu Lai (see map, page 14). By the end of May approximately 20,000 American combat troops-seven marine battalions and supporting units and two army battalions-had swollen the ranks of ~erican forces in Vietnam to 46,500. The troops were digging in to fight a war. But the com- bat troops of the American armed forces represented only the head of a body with a very l

  ong tail-the logistical sup- port. The marines had been the first to take on a combat role.

  内容简介：

  Not only was Vietnam America s longest war. It was also the most photographed. A veritable army of photographers from around the world focused their still, cin- ema, and TV cameras on South and North Vietnam and showered many millions of images onto the public consciousness. Uninhibited by censorship and free to ven- ture wherever their courage or their competitiveness took them, photographers cov- ering the South Vietnamese and American side of the war compiled a visual record that is unprecedented for its breadth and candor. Among those who compiled that record were the more than 1,500 soldiers, sailors, marines, coast guardsmen, and airmen who were assigned the front and the rear as combat photographers. This book shows the war and the people and the country of Vietnam as they captured it on film.
