Admiral Salzer was in the thick of the fray in Vietnam, in command of riverine warfare from 1967-1968. He set up Operation Sealords. He returned in 1971-1972 as Commander U.S. Naval Forces, Vietnam. In his U.S. Naval Institute oral history, he recounts details of logistics support, fiscal management, ship repairs, and the awareness of what was necessary to assist the Vietnamese in building a viable naval force. This memoir, which also includes a good deal on Admiral Salzer''s pre-Vietnam service, is a wide-ranging story with observations on many areas where he served--amphibious operations, mine warfare, intelligence, command of destroyers and cruisers, statistical analysis, logistics, and manpower requirements.
