A separate functional series complements the operational histories.This volume details the activities of Marine Corps units after the departure from Vietnamin 1971 of Ill Marine Amphibious Force, through to the 1973 ceasefire, and includes thereturn of Marine prisoners of war from North Vietnam. Written from diverse views andsources, the common thread in this narrative is the continued resistance of the SouthVietnamese Armed Forces, in particular the Vietnamese Marine Corps, to Communistaggression. This book is written from the perspective of the American Marines who assistedthem in their efforts. Someday the former South Vietnamese Marines will be able to telltheir own story.By July 1971, less than 500 U.S. Marines, mostly advisors, communicators, and supportingarms specialists remained in Vietnam. It was thought at the time that the successof "Vietnamizarion" of the war would lessen even this small number, as it was hopedthat the South Vietnamese could continue fighting successfully. This hope vanished inspring 1972, dashed by a full-scale North Vietnamese Army invasion. The renewed combatsaw the U.S. Marines return once more to Southeast Asia in a continuation of thewar that now seemed to have no end. The fighting proceed.ed into the fall, and onlyceased with the signing of peace accords in Paris in January 1973.The War That Wou/d Not End is the product of a collaboration of two career Marines, who brought a total of 42 years of service experience to the project while assigned to theHistory and Museums Division of Headquarters Marine Corps.

He played a critical part in the locationand recovery of the Marine Advisory Unit records just prior to the fall of Saigon.Lieutenant Colonel Arnold also contributed to this project through his review of the commentedition and with further advice and encouragement until his untimely death in 1990.The project was completed by Major Charles D.
