"Although the Vietnam War gives up its secrets grudgingly, former special agent Douglass Hubbard unveils an intriguing new account of U.S. Naval Intelligence operations in the Republic of Vietnam. Drawing on his three years' service in Vietnam and his subsequent research and interviews, Hubbard weaves a masterful story that is equally inspiring and frustrating--just as the war itself proved to be." --Col. Joseph H. Alexander, USMC (Ret.), author of THE BATTLE HISTORY OF THE U.S. MARINES

Synopsis
In "Special Agent, Vietnam," Douglass H. Hubbard, Jr., relates the story of a highly dedicated and professional group of men who served voluntarily as officers, enlisted men, and civilian special agents of the Office of Naval Intelligence in Vietnam. Through Hubbard?'s eyes--he served three consecutive tours as one of about two dozen civilian agents--the reader enters the clandestine and often dangerous world of counterespionage and crime, all amid the sights, sounds, and smells of the Vietnam War. Civilian special agents, despite their rather uncertain combat status as civilians, left secure stateside jobs and families behind, donned military uniforms, and carried weapons. They lived and worked in the field with sailors and Marines. They shared the same dangers and discomforts as military personnel, and--often in cooperation with their Vietnamese counterparts--supplied the naval services with counterintelligence and criminal investigative support. From communist infiltrators and fragging incidents to the murder of a visiting singer, Hubbard skillfully portrays the underlying chaos of a tour in Vietnam. "Special Agent, Vietnam" is the only book that addresses this aspect of the Vietnam War. It will appeal not only to those with an interest in the U.S. presence in wartime Vietnam, but also to those interested generally in military history, intelligence, counterintelligence, and criminal investigation., A memoir that relates the story of a dedicated group of men, who served voluntarily as officers and special agents of the US Office of Naval Intelligence during the Vietnam War. It takes the reader into the dangerous world of counterespionage and crime.
