When
forces, led by General Creighton Abrams,
launched an attack into neutral Cambodia
in
of violent antiwar protests throughout
the United States, dealing yet another
blow to Nixon's troubled presidency. But,
as John Shaw shows, the campaign also
proved to be a major military success.
Most histories of the Vietnam War
either give the Cambodian invasion
short shrift or merely criticize it for its
political fallout, thus neglecting one
of the campaign's key dimensions.
Approaching the subject from a distinctly
military perspective, Shaw shows how
this carefully planned and executed
offensive provided essential support for
Nixon's "decent interval" and "peace
with honor" strategies
North Vietnamese sanctuaries and
supply bases located less than a
hundred miles from Saigon and by
pushing Communist troops off the
Vietnamese border.
Despite the political cloud under
which the operation was conducted,
Shaw argues that it was not only the
best of available choices but one of the
most successful operations of the entire
war, sustaining light casualties while
protecting American troop withdrawal
and buying time for Nixon's pacification
and "Vietnamization" strategies. He
also shows how the united States took
full advantage of fortuitous events,
such as the overthrow of Cambodia's
Prince Sihanouk, the redeployment of
North Vietnamese forces, and the late
arrival of
Although critics of the operation
have protested that the North
Vietnamese never did attack out of
Cambodia, Shaw makes a persuasive
case that the near-border threat was
very real and imminent. In the end, he
contends, the campaign effectively
precluded any major North Vietnamese
military operations for over a year.
Based on exhaustive research and a
deep analysis of the invasion's
objectives, planning, organizatfon, and
operations, Shaw's shrewd study
encourages a newfound respect for
one of America's genuine military
successes during the war. |
