Overall in VERY GOOD OR BETTER CONDITION.  Black leather (or faux leather) clean boards with a gold-embossed emblem on front cover, and gilt lettering front board and spine, very clean.  The only wear issue to note is that a previous owner made markings on two pages in the book, both shown in listing photos.  In one, he/she highlighted a subset of the Vietnam Campaigns - perhaps those that he/she was involved in.  In the second, he/she wrote two names on a page - perhaps this page and adjoining page while not identifying any individuals had anecdotes and/or photos of the individuals noted.  Otherwise 136 clean and solidly bound pages, PROFUSELY ILLUSTRATED with B&W photos and illustrations, and also some color illustrations.

From the Introduction:  "One of the proudest chapters in Ranger history is the saga of the U.S. Rangers who served as Advisors (Co Van My) to the Vietnamese Ranger units.  They were a special group of soldiers who were first sent to the Republic of Vietnam in the early '60s to train, live, and fight with newly formed ARVN Ranger Units."
