商品簡介
Developed for the Vietnam War (and made famous by the 2004 presidential campaign), swift boats were versatile craft “big enough to outrun anything they couldn’t outfight” but too small to handle even a moderate ocean chop, too loud to sneak up on anyone, and too flimsy to withstand the mildest of rocket attacks. This is an intimate, exciting oral history of swift boats at war in Vietnam.
