Description:
Allen & Unwin, 1996. Softcover. VG+ (Very Good plus). AUSTRALIAN MILITARYThis book tells the story of one of the last groups of Australian riflemen who served in the Vietnam War.Delta Four exposes the inner workings of a rifle company - how its soldiers trained for war, and how they operated and fought in the war zone. It examines the basic qualities of infantry soldiering, of leadership and battlecraft.
