Product description...

OVER 9,800 WORDS STRAIGHT FROM THE VIETNAM WAR ZONE

VIETNAM: THE WAR ZONE DICTIONARY IN THEIR OWN WORDS This unique source-defined reference includes: • Uncensored slang, abbreviations, radio codes, pro-codes, hospital jargon, weapon abbreviations, acronyms, euphemisms, and commonly used foreign words and phrases, and • Unclassified official terms adopted by the United States Department of Defense and its allies in NATO, SEATO, CENTO, and IADB. This vibrant collection reflects the complexity of official terms, the primal urgency of the unofficial language, and the adaptations of the English language to new technology, military, and social challenges. Collected and curated by Sharon O. Lightholder, attorney and author, it speaks clearly from the past to the contemporary historian, linguist, genealogist, armchair reader, and veteran.
