Hell in An Loc: The 1972 Easter Invasion and the Battle That Saved South Viet Nam by Lam Quang Thi nbsp;In 1972 a North Vietnamese offensive of more than 30,000 men and one hundred tanks smashed into South Vietnam and raced to capture Saigon. All that stood in their way was a small band of 6,800 South Vietnamese (ARVN) soldiers and militiamen, and a handful of American advisors with U.S. air support, guarding An Loc, a town sixty miles north of Saigon and on the main highway to it.nbsp; nbsp; This depleted army, outnumbered and outgunned, stood its ground and fought to the end and succeeded. Against allnbsp;expectations, the ARVN beat back furious assaults from three North Vietnamese divisions, supported by artillery and armored regiments, during three months of savage fighting.nbsp Author: Lam Quang Thi Language: EnglishEdition: 1Binding: HardcoverPages: 320Publisher: University of North Texas PressPublication Date: 2009-11-30
