What is Anatomy Of A Division. : the 1st Cavalry Division In Vietnam about?
Air assault in the Ia Drang Valley, coastal campaigns, relief of Khe Sanh... wherever they were sent, the 1st Cav demonstrated beyond doubt they were a superb fighting machine. The airmobile concept was a reality proved in action. The story begins, of course, with the evolution of aerial cavalry form the days when cavalry meant horses. The discussion goes through the bureaucratic channels, with emphasis on the foresight and enthusiasm of Maj. Gen. Kinnard, and comes back full circle to the relevance in the current Army of the airmobile concept and a consideration of its potential in possible future conflicts. *Anatomy of a Division* is a well-reasoned, fascinating and fast-moving book; a major doctrinal study of a division and its impact on the modern development of the Army.
