Vietnam War - US Military Map
Be it Optimism or Negligence on the part of the ARVN command this map shows an area of South Vietnam that had already been over-run by invading North Vietnamese and Viet Cong (National Liberation Front soldiers).
The only other possible reason for printing this map at this late stage would be to show how hopeless the task at hand had become with almost every town lost.
Printed by the RVNAF (Air Force of South Vietnam) in April 1975 this piece was destined never to see action (Saigon fell on the 30th of April 1975).
This piece is a very rare snapshot of Vietnam at the close of the war.
This area, always under pressure from the Viet Cong was up until the withdrawal of the USA in 1972 a relatively controlled area. At this time, April 1975, however, almost the entire area is marked as Abandoned (Taken over by the VC) or Destroyed (Again, taken over by the VC). With Cirlao da S'Rang not showing as fallen the village is so tiny that it would not normally be one a map excepting its' position alongside the Da R'Gna (Stream).
Only to the very north of the Map do we see some signs of life with the French Plantations, Mazy and Oster-Martin still remaining intact (whilst a number of French Plantations were still managed by the French byt VC were aware that they would require these income earning businesses once the war ended and avoided damaging them or their management, at this time.
