"Unheralded Victory is the true, but rarely acknowledged, history of the defeat of the Viet Cong and North Vietnamese Army at the hands of the American and Allied troops from 1961 through 1973. It chronicles, in detail, the virtual annihilation of the Viet cong by the late 1960s. the book then recounts the first wholesale introduction of North Vietnamese Army troops onto the battlefield in 1964 and American's response--the landing of U.S. ground forces in early 1965. Battle by battle, from Ia Drang through Khe Sanh through the Linebacker Operations, Unheralded Victory presents a convincing and accurate picture of the American victory."--Publisher's description .

Unheralded Victory is a revisionist history of the Vietnam war, charting the defeat of the Viet Cong. It investigates why the popular image of the war then, as now, is that propagated by Hanoi's propoganda machine, and why US propaganda was so clumsy. Many myths are debunked: drug use among forces, fragging, US morale: the author's account squares with the recollection of actual veterans. He also exposes a number of eyewitnesses - some active in the veterans' organizations who were never in Vietnam and whose false testimony has contributed to enduring myth of the crazed 'Nam veteran as portrayed in cinema and TV.

We have come to expect that a pill alone is necessary and sufficient to handle complex psychiatric problems. Over reliance on the medical model can diminish the human part and responsibility for recovery.
