Just finished the audiobook of Hell in a Very Small Place by Bernard B. Fall, and holy poo poo is that a fantastic book about the siege of Dien Bien Phu. A favorite moment of mine involved the commander of French paratroopers on the ground argued with the paratrooper command in Hanoi over jump qualifications for combatants going into the valley, because they were constantly under-manned and had a hard time finding specialists that were jump qualified.quote:"On the other hand, Langlais insisted that basically a parachute was just a handy way of getting out of an aircraft in mid-air and could be used by any reasonably agile man who had jumped off a streetcar. Langlais turned out to be right."
