It's the book on Riverine Operations. Just thought this was interesting, and it does touch on Sea Lords with some specificity, shows the LST setups, maps, etc. Also a book on Special Forces. But I didn't see where Rassman would come in (mostly mid-early 60s stuff).

I wonder if the Navy has a similar selection of on-line works?

Other good info. There's a fair number of these sites around. Many are incomplete, or seem to have inaccurate information. The book I mentioned is very good, and very detailed.

C'MON you Navy guys. The Army's got a page.

Well, the Navy has something - HERE. But only two months in 1966 are available. Sure would be nice to have some 68-69 records and accounts.

Interesting stuff in this chapter - to be fair. Similar in detail to the previous.
