The Soldier’s Revolt

Hidden Story of the Americans that Finished the Vietnam War

Excerpts and adaptation: The Soldier’s Revolt  by Joel Geier

“Our army that now remains in Vietnam is in a state approaching collapse, with
individual units avoiding or having refused combat, murdering their officers and
noncommissioned officers, drug-ridden, and dispirited where not near-mutinous
conditions exist among American forces in Vietnam that have only been exceeded
in this century by…the collapse of the Tsarist armies in 1916 and 1917.”
