Download or read book The Birth Of Modern Riverine Warfare: US Riverine Operations In The Vietnam War written by Lieutenant Commander William B. Bassett and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2014-08-15 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines U.S. riverine operations in the Vietnam War. With the current drive to establish a riverine capability within the U.S. Armed Forces as an integral part of the GWOT and small wars of the future, the evolution and operation of the U.S. riverine force during the Vietnam War serves as an effective blueprint for the conduct of modern riverine warfare. American riverine forces in Vietnam operated in a diverse range of brown and green water environments, successfully conducting a wide variety of missions. The evolution of these forces reflected the continuing need to develop the capabilities necessary for these operations. Their success was largely derived from experience which resulted in the creation of a variety of discrete riverine task forces specially configured for their specific missions as the situation dictated. U.S. riverine operations in Vietnam illustrate the complex nature of operations in brown and green water and the inherently joint requirement of the forces involved. The lessons learned as a result of these operations should be incorporated as a fundamental part of the creation of any modern riverine force.

Download or read book Combat at Close Quarters written by Edward J. Marolda and published by Government Printing Office. This book was released on 2015 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work describes riverine combat during the Vietnam War, emphasizing the operations of the U.S. Navy’s River Patrol Force, which conducted Operation Game Warden; the U.S. Army-Navy Mobile Riverine Force, the formation that General William Westmoreland said “saved the Mekong Delta” during the Tet Offensive of 1968; and the Vietnam Navy. An important section details the SEALORDS combined campaign, a determined effort by U.S. Navy, South Vietnamese Navy, and allied ground forces to cut enemy supply lines from Cambodia and disrupt operations at base areas deep in the delta. The author also covers details on the combat vessels, helicopters, weapons, and equipment employed in the Mekong Delta as well as the Vietnamese combatants (on both sides) and American troops who fought to secure Vietnam’s waterways. Special features focus on the ubiquitous river patrol boats (PBRs) and the Swift boats (PCFs), river warfare training, Vice Admiral Elmo R. Zumwalt Jr., the Black Ponies aircraft squadron, and Navy SEALs. This publication may be of interest to history scholars, veterans, students in advanced placement history classes, and military enthusiasts given the continuing impact of riverine warfare on U.S. naval and military operations in the 21st century.

Download or read book What Lessons Can Be Drawn From U.S. Riverine Operations During The Vietnam War written by Major David J. Spangler and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2014-08-15 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines U.S. riverine force operations in the Vietnam War to determine why the force was established, how and why it evolved, and what significance it held for the war as a whole. This study begins with Operation Game Warden, continues through Mobile Riverine Force operations, and ends with the completion of the SEALORDS campaign. The impetus for this research arose from the current debate in Washington as to whether or not the U.S. military has a real need for riverine forces and if those forces should be "stood up" today. Looking back through history gives an opportunity to view past riverine warfare conducted by the American military and determine the contributions such operations have made to the overall conduct of wars. This study shows that riverine operations have been crucial to success in certain environments in the past and points to their possible use in similar environments today. This study measures the effect of U.S. riverine operations in Vietnam and evaluates the contribution this type of force made to our war effort in that environment. This study promotes the use of Task Force 194, which conducted the SEALORDS campaign, as the model for establishing U.S. riverine forces today. This study points out that the nucleus of a riverine force must be maintained, doctrine modernized, and crew currency maintained in order to have any reasonable expectation for success at the outset of future riverine conflicts.

Book excerpt: "R. Blake Dunnavent traces the evolution of riverine warfare in U.S. military operations from its informal inception in the 18th century to its establishment as a formal doctrine in the 20th century. As the key to understanding the emergence, development, and later adoption of this particular military strategy, he examines the conflicts in which riverine tactics figured prominently: the American Revolution, the War of 1812, the Second Seminole War, the Mexican War, the Civil War, the Rio Grande Patrol, the Philippine-American War/Yangtze River Patrol, and the Vietnam War." "Materials from the National Archives, Navy Operational Archives, Marine Corps Archives, Library of Congress, and private collections serve as the basis for his investigation. Engraving, drawings, photographs, and detailed maps enable the reader to visualize the events described in each chapter. Relatively little else has been published with regard to the United States' role on inland waterways, domestic or international. For military historians as well as buffs, Brown Water Warfare fills a historical gap as the only complete study for those interested in U.S. riverine military history."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Download or read book An Analysis of the Employment of the LVT-5 in Riverine Operations in Vietnam and a Recommendation for the Employment of the AAAV in Future Riverine Operations written by and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Marine Corps will introduce the Advanced Assault Amphibian Vehicle (AAAV) in 2005, which will completely replace the current Assault Amphibian Vehicle (AAV) fleet of 1,013 vehicles by 2015. The AAAV will be the seventh version of the Landing Vehicle Tracked (LVT) referred to as "Alligators, Amphibious Tractors or Amtracs," and will continue a legacy of unique and innovative assault amphibians begun by Donald Roebling in 1942 with the original "Alligator" (LVT-1) used in World War II. The AAAV is a quantum leap from the LVT-5 employed in Vietnam. With multispectrum signature reduction, increased land and water speed, digital communications, and increased firepower the AAAV will provide the MAGTF with an ideal platform to support riverine operations. The focus of this paper is to analyze the employment of the LVT-5 in riverine operations in Vietnam and make recommendations for the employment of the AAAV for future riverine operations. Following an introduction, the paper contains the following chapters: (2) Background on Riverine Warfare, (3) Riverine Warfare in Vietnam, (4) The LVT-5, (5) LVT-5 Employment in Riverine Operations in Vietnam, (6) Analysis of Lessons Learned from LVT-5 Riverine Operations in Vietnam, (7) The Transition from LVT-5 to AAV, (8) Stagnant Riverine Warfare Doctrine since Vietnam, (9) Emerging Doctrine and Over-the-Horizon Requirements, (10) The AAAV, (11) The AAAV and Future Riverine Operations, (12) Possible Scenarios for Future AAAV Riverine Operations, and (13) Recommendations for the Employment of AAAVs in Future Riverine Operations.
