Tiger Force and Phoenix and the Birds of Prey: Counterinsurgency and Counterterrorism in Vietnam

A friend has shared some information gleaned from the book Tiger Force, US soldiers in Vietnam on special ops duties who were basically independent. Maybe I will get a review from my friend on this book, I cannot say if it is biased or not. What I will say is the next book I recommend, Phoenix and the Birds of Prey: Counterinsurgency and Counterterrorism in Vietnam, is quite balanced as its author has researched it extensively and provides inside details into the legendary 'Phoenix' program. I actually know nothing of it, but it looks extremely interesting and looks like it will be an exciting read.
