Synopsis

Wherever a Vietcong - or Charlie as he was often called - was inferior to the American GI's firepower, he tried to compensate by using booby traps excessively; with success. These hidden objects claimed numerous victims and were an important part of the Vietcong's war in Vietnam. Spiked foot and mantraps are common types of booby traps found throughout Vietnam. The VC also employ crude but effective tripwire type devices along trails and paths which release arrows, bamboo whips, and other 'swinging, barbed, club-type objects. Barbs are often dipped in poison to compound casualty effects. This book presents the most of (and best of) these “deadly tricks”. It will help you to be prepared should the time happen to come.
