Vietnam, A Technical Tour with the 1st Topographical Survey Troop
On the Offensive

By R.M. McMillan-Kay. Joshua Books, 174pp.

Reviewer :: Lt Simone Heye

This book is a gem.

Many self-published books are of narrow interest, but A Technical Tour is an exception.

Reading it from cover to cover in one sitting, interest was piqued with every second picture, article, letter or map.

The book follows 1 Topo Svy Tp's tour of Vietnam from 1966-1972 and is a perfect bound collection of memories.

It's definitely one of the better Vietnam-oriented books, focusing more on the troops and the communities than tactics and bravado.

This book is available from the author for $30 plus postage of $6 in Queensland and $8 for the rest of Australia. The address is: R. McMillan-Kay, PO Box 125, Maleny, Qld 4552.
