Description
They were frequently not just on the front line, but right at the sharp end of the action.
They were the legendary sappers, the army engineers, who were literally everywhere in the fighting against the Vietcong. This special breed of soldier lived hard and played hard.
They were there at the beginning of the war. They were also among the last to leave. And on the way, they fought alongside their mates in infantry and tanks and bore the brunt of the Vietcong's revenge. To the rest of the world, Vietnam was a conflict of ideologies.
On the ground it was a battle of wits and the sappers were at the forefront.
This is their story.
