Of course, my husband was my first resource. He could answer most of my questions. That's a good start. I've got a pretty good idea of the meanings. I need to keep notes. Lots of notes. So, out comes my notebook.
Now I need more accurate descriptions. The internet is great. But, one thing leads to another. A better description, a picture. Learning the technical meaning, then understanding it. Then making sure it is the right definition for the Vietnam War.
For example, I talked about the Recoilless Rifle. I found a 57 mm, 75mm, 90 mm, and 105mm, Which one did they use? Charlie Company used the 90mm (also know as the M67). NVA used the 75mm.
So, every item had to be researched. And notes made.
I already had an outline. Now I needed to update and make sure the outline followed the course of the battle as described in the Staff Journal.
That took a while.
90 MM RECOILLESS
