About This Item
Sydney: Allen & Unwin, 2004. 1st ed.. Paperback octavo, very good condition, black & white text-photos, maps, minor edgewear corners. 332 pp. This is the first time Delta Company Commanders have shared their memories of the most significant battle fought by Australians in Vietnam, the Battle of Long Tan. Each of the commanders shares the experiences that brought them to Vietnam, and describes how the company commander, Harry Smith, drove Delta Company to become one of the most outstanding units in the Australian forces. The ongoing efforts of the Long Tan commanders to right the many wrongs perpetrated in the wake of the battle, and their own journeys after the fighting of August 1966 make this book a compelling story on the aftermath of Vietnam.
