| book description |
The first comprehensive account of the 1972 U.S. mining of Haiphong Harbor told through vivid first-hand accounts. Barrett Tillman’s Execute, Repeat, Execute delivers a long-overdue, deeply researched account of one of the most strategically impactful operations of the entire conflict. With the precision of a seasoned historian and the flair of a novelist, Barrett Tillman revisits Operation Pocket Money: the 1972 U.S. naval mining of Haiphong Harbor, a bold maneuver that sealed North Vietnam’s key maritime lifeline and helped force Hanoi back to the negotiating table. For fans of aviation and Vietnam War history, this book offers a rare Command Room to cockpit perspective. Uniquely, Tillman incorporates both American and North Vietnamese sources, including translated official Hanoi documents and first-hand Vietnamese accounts – many appearing in English for the first time. This dual narrative deepens our understanding of the conflict’s technological, tactical, and human dimensions. With insights into Cold War geopolitics, aerial tactics, and naval coordination, Execute, Repeat, Execute is an essential read for those with an interest in the history of war.
