I collect unit histories or yearbooks printed while the units were serving in Vietnam. I will update the list later to be more specific, but offhand I have the following:

 

1. 1st Infantry Division (3 separate volumes covering deployment through 1969)

2. 2nd Brigade 1st Infantry Division (2 volumes for 1965 and 1966)

3. 1st Cavalry Division (deployment through 1969)

4. 1st Cavalry Division (commercially printed history from 1967 I believe)

5. 1st Marine Division (also commercially printed history from 1967 from same author as # 4)

5. 1st Engineer Battalion (I believe it covers 1965 and 1966)

6. 25th Infantry Division (5 separate volumes covering 1941-1966, 1966-1967, 1967-1968 and 1969)

7. 3rd Brigade 82nd Airborne Division (2 volumes covering 1968 and 1969 - each volume includes a story about my father)

8. 101st Airborne Division (2 volumes covering 1968 and 1969)

9. 173rd Airborne Brigade (3 volumes covering deployment through 1968 - I know of at least 5 volumes for the 173rd but these are all I have so far)

10. 196th Infantry Brigade (2 volumes covering activation through 1966 - I have seen at least one other volume for 1970-1971 I believe)

11. 199th Infantry Brigade (deployment through 1968)

12. 27th Engineer Battalion (2 volumes covering 1967 through 1969)

13. Naval Support Activity, Da Nang (1968 I believe)

 

I know that there are some Army unit histories down to the battalion and even company levels, especially for cavalry, aviation and LRRP units. What other volumes do you guys know about? Are there period unit histories for the 4th and 9th Infantry Divisions, Americal Division and 11th and 198th Infantry Brigades? How about support units and units from other branches? What do you guys have in your collections?
