The Blackhorse in Vietnam by Donald Snedeker The story of how the 11th Armored Cavalry overcame the perception that Vietnam was an infantry war, and demonstrated what armor could do in an insurgency. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description The story of how the 11th Armored Cavalry overcame the perception that Vietnam was an infantry war, and demonstrated what armor could do in an insurgency. When the 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment came ashore at Vung Tau, South Vietnam, in September 1966, it faced a number of challenges. The enemy – Viet Cong (VC) and North Vietnamese Army (NVA) – was, of course, the most critical challenge. But the terrain and weather were also factors that could adversely affect the employment ofboth armored vehicles and helicopters alike. The dearth of doctrine and tactics for the employment of armored cavalry in a counterinsurgency was equally challenging – especially during the pre-deployment training and initial combat operations. But just as importantly, there was an institutional bias within the Army that an insurgency was an infantrymans war. Despite the thick jungle and monsoonal rains, despite the lack of doctrinal guidance, Blackhorse leaders found a way to overcome the obstacles and accomplish the mission. Within a year of their arrival in Vietnam, Blackhorse troopers overcame ambushes that featured volleys of anti-tank weapons, multitudes of mines, and coordinated assaults by reinforced enemy regiments against troop-sized positions. They defeated an entire enemy division twice their size. Most importantly, the 11th Cavalry successfully demonstrated the ability to operate on and off the roads, in the jungle, and during both the wet and dry seasons. By the spring of 1967, Army leaders were beginning to realize the value of armored forces in Vietnam. With the Blackhorse Regiment leading the way, armor was considered an essential part of the combat team. This is a history of the Blackhorse Regiment in the Vietnam War, and the stories of some of the 20,000 young Americans who served in its ranks during the war. AUTHOR: Don served in the Blackhorse Regiment in Vietnam and as a troop commander post-Vietnam. He was in active military service until 1992. For the past 20 years Don has served as the historian for the 11th Armored Cavalry Veterans of Vietnam and Cambodia. 40 photographs and maps Author Biography Don Snedeker is a second-generation Blackhorse trooper.

Don returned to the 11th Cavalry in Germany, serving from 1976 to 1978 as the commander of Bravo Troop. Don retired from active military service in 1992. For the past 30 years, Don has served as the historian for the 11th Armored Cavalry Veterans of Vietnam and Cambodia.

That lack of understanding does not subtract from the valor displayed over six years of fighting. The regiments arrival in Vietnam doubled the number of armored vehicles in country with many of the old timers in the military command questioning the ability of the new forces to operate in the jungle and rice paddies. Not only did the leaders and soldiers of the Blackhorse have to learn the tough lessons of real combat operations, they also had to educate fellow leaders and soldiers of infantry units of their quick reactions and lethal capabilities. But the heart of the story is the combat operations and the day-to-day valor displayed by the cavalry troopers. Snedeker tells this history through interviews and soldiers letters as well as memoirs, histories and official records. His use of intelligence reports and enemy writings is particularly helpful in understanding what was going on on the other side of the hill or, in this case, the other part of the jungle. The soldiers viewpoint brings the story alive, exciting and, at times, sorrowful. Thanks to Don Snedeker, the reader will understand the uniqueness of being a cavalry trooper.”–William L. Nash, Major General, U.S. Army, Retired, 1st Review Quote “…this is one of the better books on the Vietnam War to come out in many years. Its penetrating insights and revelations make it a must-have on any military history or national security bookshelf.” Feature This history tells how the Blackhorse adapted to fight in Vietnam and persuaded the Army that armor had a role to play in the war Details ISBN1612008461 Pages 336 Publisher Casemate Publishers Year 2020 ISBN-10 1612008461 ISBN-13 9781612008462 Format Hardcover Imprint Casemate Publishers Country of Publication United States DEWEY 959.7043 Short Title The Blackhorse in Vietnam Language English UK Release Date 2020-05-01 AU Release Date 2020-05-01 NZ Release Date 2020-05-01 Illustrations 40 photos and maps Author Donald Snedeker Subtitle The 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment in Vietnam and Cambodia, 1966–1972 Publication Date 2020-03-19 US Release Date 2020-03-19 Audience General We’ve got this At The Nile, if you’re looking for it, we’ve got it.
