5.0 out of 5 stars
Superb Reference Book,
By Chester McDougal (Amarillo, TX USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Medals of America Presents the Decorations and Medals of the Republic of Vietnam and Her Allies 1950-1975 (Hardcover)
I was recently doing a research paper on the fall of Vietnam under Communism. This book has more than just the history of medals and decorations from the Vietnam era, but gives precise details on how the war began to French forces to when the Americans pulled out. This is a very complete, beautiful color guide to all Republic of Vietnam Military and Civilian decorations, medals, ribbons and unit awards. It includes all Vietnamese civilian awards and their different classes with pictures and descriptions of all the medals of the Vietnamese Allies.
