Summary: Rare Summary of NVA & VC Uniforms, Weapons, & Organization
Comment: This is another great little book from Osprey. It really gives the reader a grounded understanding of how our North Vietnamese adversaries fought and organized. Its one of those little books that armchair historians, like myself, might recommend others read if they care to better understand what the US military faced in Vietnam. And, as with all Osprey's offerings, the illustrations are "must have" resources for military artists, collectors, and 1/6th scale modellers, like me. This book lost a fifth star from me only for not including more illustrations of PAVN (NVA) equipment and PLAF (VC) battle dress. It cried out for a good illustration of VC "pajamas", sandals, and indigeneous head gear. I could have used some more views of web gear and small arms as well. The lack of pictures of the various RPGs and related gear was in my mind an oversite. I am an avid reader of military history and a 1/6th scale modeller. I read the Osprey series of books religiously and recommend that all others who share my interests do as well.
