In Vietnam, river warfare was often conducted in the dark. It was always dangerous, sometimes fatal--especially in the eastern end of the Cong-plagued Mekong Delta. In 1967, U.S. Navy Lt. Wynn Goldsmith was the "river rat" who led the first MK II PBR patrol boats in brutal combat.
It was a deadly business. These sailors, famous for their courage and combat effectiveness, faced sniper bullets, machine guns, and mines while searching sampans, patrolling treacherous enemy-controlled waterways like Ambush Alley, and rescuing crews from burning boats in the middle of firefights. During the Tet Offensive, Goldsmith's area saw some of the most hotly contested fighting in the entire Mekong Delta. This gripping account is a tribute to these brave men and their agony, sacrifice, and heroism.
Wynn Goldsmith, a US Navy Lieutenant, was born in Atlanta, Georgia. He was an undergraduate at the University of Virginia and graduated in 1965. He was a recipient of a Navy Reserve Officer Training Corps scholarship. Shortly after his graduation, Goldsmith was deployed to Vietnam, serving with the brown water navy, where he led the first combat patrol of the MKII PBR. After his tours in Vietnam, Goldsmith served as the Assistant for River Warfare to the Commander Amphibious Forces, US Pacific Fleet. Goldsmith has received several service awards, including the Bronze Star with Combat V, two Navy Commendation medals with Combat V, the Purple Heart, a Combat Action Award, and the Presidential Unit Citation.
