Annotated Bibliography

Prepared by Ralph Grambo

Although there is a lot of published source material about the political aspects of the Vietnam War, it is difficult to locate material that specifically relates to the transportation units deployed there. These published sources were used in the construction of the pages in the ATAV website.
