They tried, so that hope would not falter.

I had read about the Son Tay raid in other Vietnam histories and even fiction related to Vietnam. I decided I really ought to read a bit more about such an audacious attempt.

The book is comprehensive and well written, detailing the preparations, the players, the raid, the disappointment.

Now it is 35 years old though, I had hoped to find a reprint, updated edition, but could not.

Great book.

An Heroic Mission!

2004年1月25日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

First published in 1976, "The Raid" is the story of the heroic attempt to rescue 61 Americans from the North Vietnamese POW camp at Son Tay in November, 1970. It is thoroughly and meticulously researched. Its' 3 reprints attest to the quality. Author Schemmer had some obvious command cooperation in its' compilation. "The Raid" devotes more effort -and pages- in depicting the painstaking step by step preparation and practice that was dedicated to the rescue than the actual time on the ground. That is understandable, since the mission lasted less than 30 minutes. The camp was empty and no one was rescued! The author examines the intelligence "considerations' behind that unpleasant fact. More time and space is given to the inevitable damage control that the Pentagon and White House had to tackle. That easy to appreciate as well, given the frantic antiwar feelings in this country at the time. The raid took place less than 4 months after our troops were withdrawn from Cambodia. That incursion had sparked huge domestic protests. There are three outstanding traits to this tale: The first is the obvious bravery and courage shown by the men involved. The second is the sheer amount of logistical support and inter -service coordination that the effort required. There is an impressive array of those Command acronyms. As any veteran would rightly suspect, there was a bit of infighting as well. I appreciated reading that General Ryan, Air Force Chief of Staff, gave an open letter to some of the chief planners directing they receive complete "no questions asked" cooperation. Those who felt unable to comply were to call the General directly! How many calls do we think Ryan received? Finally, we the author incorporates the human beings who were the actual prisoners. We read of some of the more distinguished, such as Robinson Risner and Jerimiah Denton as well as those not as famous but who suffered as much and more. "The Raid" is almost a mini-history of the POW saga-one that extends to this very day. Over 1,800 men remain unaccounted for. Some claimed the raid to be a failure. It strikes this reviewer as an outstanding success. That's because after Son Tay, most POWs were consolidated into the big Hanoi area prisons. There was safety-not to mention a command structure-in numbers. Treatment improved, especially since many prisoners could help themselves. This reviewer would like to compliment President Nixon and Defense Secretary Laird for supporting a military action they knew would be unpopular and suspected might be unsuccessful. Canceling the operation would have been the easy way out; they courageously chose the difficult course. To this day, Mr. Nixon remains the only Chief Executive to seriously address the POW issue. Those buying "The Raid" should strongly consider Frank Anton's "Why Didn't You Get Me Out?" It's time frame perfectly complements Mr. Schemmer's tale. Finally, there is the virtual Bible on the subject, "Code Name Bright Light". That may be a lot of reading but what subject is more worthwhile?

The mother of all rescues.......

2003年5月15日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み

On November 21st, 1970, a rescue mission would be launched inside North Vietnam that would eventually gain status as being possibly the most incredible operation ever conducted during the Vietnam war.
The culmination of months of grueling planning and training, intensive coordination through military channels, extensive secrecy, and special operations wizardry would lead to the daring raid on the Son Tay POW camp just 20 short miles outside of Hanoi. So well prepared was the team that after the raid's accomplishment, no lives were lost and everyone returned safely after just 26 minutes on the ground. Everyone except U.S. POW's, that is, who were unfortunately not at the POW compound being that it had been abandoned only months previously. Information discovered as to why the Son Tay facility was empty would prove to be both revealing and disturbing to the raid planners and executers.
In assessing the aftermath of the mission itself, although deemed a failure by the mainstream media and squabbled over by Congress, the military, and intelligence agencies, positive aspects would eventually come to light to justify the raid a success after all. Unknown to many outside the purview of the POW's themselves, the raid was an eye opener to the North Vietnamese who now fully realized that America would defy the greatest of odds to repatriate their POW's and show them that they were not forgotten. The Son Tay rescue mission was a serious morale booster for our U.S. captives and also hastened their improved treatment from their North Vietnamese jailors.
Benjamin F. Schemmer has written a fascinating and in-depth study into one of the most sensational rescue missions ever accomplished in the history of warfare. Richly detailed and researched, included are photographs, maps, and appendixes with a multitude of statistics and operational facts. Whether just a casual reader or an avid fan of Vietnam era history, The Raid is an excellent book from start to finish. For those readers interested in the complete story of POW rescues in Vietnam, I would highly recommend the book "Code Name Bright Light: The Untold Story of POW Rescue Efforts During the Vietnam War" by George J. Veith.

True Patriots

The book gave a highly open look into the planning and execution of what was thought of as an unsuccessful military operation.

The author took the reader from not only how the operation was planned from the basic formation of the rescue teams but the command structure all the way to the National Command authority that included both the military leaders up to President Nixon and Henry Kissinger.

To actually go through all stages of the operation without "giving the hand away" to what wa sgoing on is truly an accomplishment given the depth of the operation and the scope of the multi-service players.

The men that participated in this mission were true heroes and the book also gave insight to other missions that may have occurred during the Vietnam period.

It has to be said that this mission and the way that it executed led to today's modern special forces operators and also contributed in a large part with the scope of the "Operation Eagle Claw"-Iranian Rescue Attempt.

This mission was no failure.

I enjoyed the book

I enjoyed the book. I was in the Special Forces at the time of this operation and knew some of the participants. Good story and great heroics.Too bad so many of those heroes have died. This is the story of a very worthwhile but dangerous mission. If only the Prisoners had been at Son Tay.
George Petre the first man out of the helicopter when it crash-landed was a friend of mine. He died only a few years ago. Any raid in which we can bring home our brave men from any war is a worthy mission. The secrecy and planning of this raid was a thing of beauty,but that is to be expected of a commander such as COL Arthur D. "Bull" Simons.
