The U.S. Navy's ability to project its combat power ashore in Southeast Asia, control the coastal waters off Vietnam, and provide logistic support for a major U.S. overseas military commitment mandated its heavy involvement in the Vietnam War. Naval operations took place in the South China Sea, among myriad islands, along the coastline of Vietnam, and on thousands of nautical miles of rivers and canals.

    I had the pleasure of visiting this college two years ago during a Branson reunion. They have a very nice "training" restaurant, and a large museum on campus well worth visiting!
