A Sappers' War - The Book

A Sappers' War: How the Legendary Aussie Tunnel Rats Fought the Vietcong

 

 

 

" They were the forward scouts, the mine clearers, the bridge builders and the tunnel rats. This is the story of the Sappers in Vietnam.

 

'We make and we break.' ... They were the forward scouts, the mine clearers, the bridge builders and the tunnel rats. They were frequently not just on the front line, but right at the sharp end of the action. They were the legendary Aussie sappers, the army engineers, who were literally everywhere in the fighting against the Vietcong.

 

This special breed of soldier lived hard and played hard. They were there at the beginning of the war. They were also among the last to leave. And along the way, they fought with their mates in infantry and tanks to bear the brunt of the Vietcong's revenge.

 

To the rest of the world, Vietnam was a conflict of ideologies. On the ground it was a battle of wits and the sappers were at the forefront. This is their story "

 

 
 

" This is an opportunity to mention why I was driven to do this book. Not only do I want to record the variety of the Sapper tasks and skills I want the general public to know. This is not a book ‘just’ for Sappers – Infantry and Armoured Corps in peacetime often do not realize how to use Sappers and how useful they are in War – hopefully this book will keep alive the intimate inter corps cooperation in War.

The History of the University of New South Wales Regiment 1952 – 2006  is available now and is a 377 page hardcover book to highlight the many achievements of the Regiment and its members.

 

The book spans 54 years of the Regiment’s continuing existence as a major training unit of the Australian Army. More than 1,400 people are referred to in the book - as staff members, as trainees, or as guests of the Regiment at various times. Many of the people named also appear in one or more of the book’s 233 photographs.

Among those referred to in the book are all known to have been commissioned as officers in the Army Reserve while serving with UNSWR.

The appendices include contributions by several former members of UNSWR who have recalled aspects their service with the Regiment. There is also a summary concerning the way in which formal pre-commissioning training has been developed for Army Reserve members generally.

Concluding with a comprehensive index, this book is a must if you have ever served in UNSWR or have had a family member who has done so. If you have an interest in the Australian Army either as a member or as a citizen of the local community where UNSWR has had a presence, then you may also find this book to be one worthy of your home library.
