HughNothing covers "the area". The Sylvester book (and I, too, have trouble remembering title) is just Vietnam as I recall and just in the context of the US war there.

JBFloyd Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 John Sylvester published two monographs on Laotian medals:Sylvester, John. Orders and Medals of Cambodia and Laos. NP, 1986Sylvester, John. Orders and Medals of the Communist Governments of Indochina. NP, 1986Both were self-published and I doubt even John has extra copies. They weren't real strongly bound, so they fall apart easily with use. As a result many may not survive at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are extensive, detailed and fascinating. I'm sure the forthcoming book will be a masterpiece. Best, Hugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
