{"product_id":"9781782002222","title":"Vietnam Firebases 1965-73: American and Australian Forces","description":"Artillery fire support bases of the Freeworld forces played a critical role in the conduct of operations during the Vietnam War. They served to lay down high-volume fire on enemy firing sites, supported friendly infantry operations, and executed harassing fire missions where exact targets were not known. But the firebases themselves which housed a range of other facilities such as troop shelters, surveillance radars and command centers had to be defended against ground attack, and as a result became significant fortifications in their own right. This book describes the design, development and operational history of the fire support bases throughout the conflict.","brand":"Bloomsbury USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47181656719600,"sku":"9781782002222","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781782002222","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
