Private Notes
Vietnam was the first helicopter war. The chopper meant a new weapon for swift ground-support firepower and a workhorse for supply and evacuating the wounded. Don't miss this actual under-fire footage.
Our base has been surrounded and cut off. 6000 Marines bravely hold their ground under merciless non-stop enemy fire. In grueling combat, aided by close air support and naval gunfire, they blast out the VC and take prisoners, but at a painful cost.
Vietnam was not just a soldier's war, it was a sailor's war. Actual footage takes you in close to the big guns as they fire at shore targets and to the fighter aircraft roaring off the carrier decks, plus the contribution of the river boat forces and the Seabees.
This is the heroic story of the armored and their valiant role in Vietnam. Few thought tanks and armored vehicles could be used in a country of rugged terrain and steaming jungles. They came through, dealing a bloody defeat to their enemy.
This is the nightmare story of what it was like to fight in the jungles of Vietnam. A war with no front lines, when the enemy is liable to fire at you around the next bend or from behind the next tree. Don't miss this actual under-fire footage.
Finally, footage that captures the brutal story of the heroic "Ivymen" of the 4th Infantry Division in close-up furious combat. You'll see them on patrol and wading the rivers, hitting the enemy with the mobility of tanks, helicopters, and the terror of artillery. Be witness to how it really was for the foot soldier at war.
