Stories for You

"Chaos" by Gen. Raymond Bell
Featured for this Week

The principal duty assignment described in my efficiency report dated 3 August 1969 read in part, “Operations Staff Officer, ACofS, J3.  Member, special planning group tasked to prepare long range plans for United States force reductions in Vietnam, residual force concepts and operations.”   The description frames my perspective of --- chaos. 

I had come from a Vietnam battlefield in February 1969 as an armored cavalry squadron executive officer to join the Joint Staff’s planning section, J3.  After six months I had just left behind a thousand man squadron where my major accomplishment was that on my watch the unit had suffered no combat or other deaths.

I was saddened to hear the news that fellow Vietnam Veteran and advocate Bernie Edelman passed away. I met Bernie soon after I came home from Vietnam. A draftee, he was a broadcast specialist and combat correspondent in Vietnam. With talent and grace, he captured the spirit of military service in his writings, with a deep respect for the solemn oath we all swear to when we serve. He edited the best-selling book Dear America: Letters Home from Vietnam, for the New York Vietnam Veterans Memorial Commission. The popularity of the book led HBO to produce it into a full-length movie, winning HBO its very first Emmy. Bernie served as an associate producer. Later, he served as co-producer of the documentary short, "Memorial: Letters from American Soldiers," which was nominated for an Academy Award.
