O knihe

The author discusses the three Axioms in
the dominant interpretation of the U.S.-Vietnam War that
were established by the invisible permanent government right
after the National Security Council meeting on September 21,
1960. They are: - There was never a legitimate
non-communist government in Saigon (dissolution GVN) - The
U.S. had no legitimate reason to be involved in Vietnamese
affairs (Tonkin-Gulf-Incident) - The U.S. could not have
won the war under any circumstances (U.S. troops honorable
withdrawal) There are many reasons why the author decided
to write this book, The New Legion. He felt compelled to
write it for the longest time; after spending thirteen years
in the Communists' so-called "reeducation camp." He escaped
from a canal in the Mekong Delta and drifted in a rickety
old boat similar to a child's toy from South Vietnam for
fourteen days until he reached the nearest Pacific island,
Palawan Islands, Philippines. He knew the pain that all the
people who were involved suffered yet he thought that
perhaps it might be best to let it become a not-so-distant
memory. Now, he has finally decided to write the truth at
last. It is the story of loyalty, duty, honor, and love.
