COLONEL JOHN B.
HASEMAN
Colonel John B. Haseman is a Southeast Asia specialist, who spent
more than 18 years in the region. He was in Vietnam (1967-1968) as a
Captain with the 9th Infantry Division and later as a district-level
advisor in the Mekong Delta (1971-1973). From July 1971 to June
1972, he was the Deputy District Advisor in Ham Long District. Then
from June 1972 until February 1973, he was the Deputy District
Advisor in Mo Cay District. From 1987 to 1990, he also served as the
U.S. Defense and Army Attache in Rangoon, Burma. He had three
separate assignments to Indonesia and was U.S. Defense and Army
Attache in Jakarta from 1990 to 1994. In addition, the Colonel
filled assignments in Thailand and South Korea.
His article concerning Colonel Nguyen Van Cu, the Mocay District
Chief in Kien Hoa province is very well-written and down to earth.
It appeared in Vietnam Magazine (in 1992). Mo Cay is famous for its
coconut candy.
Colonel Haseman’s latest writing on Nguyen Van Kiet is in the
December 2008 of Vietnam Magazine adding to more than 150 articles,
book chapters, and book reviews for publications worldwide.
Nguyen Van Kiet is one of only two South Vietnamese who was awarded
the Navy Cross for actions during the Vietnam War. Colonel William
Charles Anderson (May 7, 1920-May 16, 2003) wrote a book about Mr.
Kiet’s heroism. The book was later adapted into a 1988 movie named
Bat*21. As of 2008, Mr. Kiet resides in the State of Washington.
Bat*21 was filmed in Sabah, Malaysia, directed by Pete Markle. The
film stars Gene Hackman as Lt. Colonel Iceal E. “Gene” Hambleton,
the downed navigator (EWO) officer, and Danny Glover as Captain
Bartholomew Clark, an Air Force FAC pilot who files a Cessna
Skymaster. The film is based on the real-life rescue of Lt. Colonel
Hambleton by US Navy Seal Thomas R. Norris and team member Nguyen
Van Kiet, a South Vietnamese SEAL.
The Navy Cross was awarded to Petty Officer Third Class Nguyen Van
Kiet from the President of the United States with citation: For
extraordinary heroism while serving with friendly forces engaged in
armed conflict against the North Vietnamese and Viet Cong communist
aggressors in the Republic of Vietnam. On April 13, 1972, Petty
Officer Kiet participated in an unprecedented recovery operation for
a downed United States aviator behind enemy lines in Quang Tri
Province, Republic of Vietnam. He courageously volunteered to
accompany a United States SEAL Advisor in an extremely hazardous
attempt to reach the aviator , who was physically unable to move
toward friendly positions. Using a sampan and traveling throughout
the night, they silently made their way deep into enemy territory,
past numerous major enemy positions, locating the pilot at dawn.
Once, after being spotted by a North Vietnamese patrol, he calmly
continued to keep the enemy confused as the small party successfully
evaded the patrol. Later, they were suddenly taken under heavy
machine gun fire. Thinking first of the pilot, he quickly pulled the
sampan to safety behind a bank and camouflaged it while air strikes
were called on the enemy position. Due to Petty Officer Kiet’s
coolness under extremely dangerous conditions and his outstanding
courage and professionalism, an American aviator was recovered after
an eleven-day ordeal behind enemy lines. His self-discipline,
personal courage, and dynamic fighting spirit were an inspiration to
all; thereby reflecting great credit upon himself and the Naval
Service.”
We would like to quote (reprined on pages 228-229 NEW WORLD ORDER
AND MONOPOLY POWER****PUBLISHER VIET TIME****AUTHOR: NGUYEN KINH
DOANH) from Captain Shelby L. Stanton’s letter to us dated February
24, 1992: “….History has now proven that the Republic of Vietnam and
its people were fighting for the truly just cause of freedom and
democracy from 1954-1975. The recent collapse of communism
throughout much of the world has proved the righteousness of our
mutual struggle. In this endeavor, our American soldiers – and
advisors like myself – were honored to fight alongside your own
valiant military ranks in battle. It is my hope that someday you and
your countrymen as well as your descendants, will be restored to the
positions of great honor that you richly deserve within Vietnam
itself. This recognition is overdue now. The war division must be
healed, property restored to its rightful owners and all Vietnamese
forever welcome wherever they may choose to go – including the
Vietnamese homeland as well as the United States. I have unbound
admiration for the timeless martial qualities, virtue, pride, and
sincerity of the Vietnamese people.”
Shelby L. Stanton is a prominent military historian. During the
Vietnam War, he was an infantry officer and completed the Airborne,
Ranger, and Special Officer courses. His six years on active
military duty included service throughout Southeast Asia, where he
earned the Vietnam service and campaign medals. He was also
decorated for advisory duty in direct support of Cambodian
operations. After being wounded in Laos, he was medically retired
with the rank of captain.
The Captain received a B.A., M.Ed., and J.D. from Louisiana State
University. In addition, he is the author of Rangers at War; Rise
and Fall of an American Army; U.S. Ground Forces in Vietnam,
1965-1973; Vietnam Order of Battle; and Order of Battle, U.S. Army,
World War II.
Now, let’s hear Colonel Haseman’s narration on the rise and fall of
the Mo Cay district chief – courtesy of Vietnam Magazine (800)
829-3340:
Colonel Nguyen Van Cu was a maverick, a patriot and soldier who was
willing to die for his beliefs.
By Colonel John B. Haseman
Lieutenant Colonel Nguyen Van Cu, Army of the
Republic of Vietnam, was a man who called forth-strong emotions from
all who knew him. Vietnamese found him to be a good friend and a
ruthless opponent. American advisers found him unpredictable,
effective most of the time but seemingly immovable at others.
Outspoken in a society that valued discretion, argumentative with
superiors in a culture that valued hierarchy and status;
breathtakingly courageous on the battlefield, Nguyen Van Cu was an
enigma to all who knew him.
Above all else, however, he was a patriot who deeply loved his
country and who believed in his people’s strength and dignity. He
was a maverick. Nguyen Van Cu was the district chief of Mo Cay
district, Kien Hoa province, I the northern part of the Mekong
Delta. Mo Cay was only one of 254 districts in Vietnam, but it was a
very special one. It was in Mo Cay that the Viet Cong movement was
alleged to have had its beginnings in South Vietnam. It became
legendary as a stronghold of Viet Cong military and political
strength. As district chief in this area of shifting loyalties and
radical history, Colonel Cu functioned as the top civilian and
military official of some 72,000 people, with responsibilities
ranging from tactical operations to school construction. It is
difficult to govern a legend, and in the process Nguyen Van Cu
became a legend himself.
Cu was born and raised in northern Vietnam and grew up in the
turmoil of the Viet Minh revolt against the French. Following the
1954 Geneva Accords his family moved south, settling in coastal Binh
Dinh province, a communist hotbed throughout the war period. During
his 20-odd years of military service, he was separated from his
family much of the time. Arrival of his wife and 10 children on
visits to Mo Cay was a major event for him, an occasion of close
family association not shared with outsiders. Although his quarters
at the cramped district headquarters compound were hardly adequate
for a family of 12, Cu always found room. Often he spoke of his
hopes for a time of real peace so he and his family could stay
together. A devoted father in the Vietnamese tradition, Cu used his
every resource for his children and proudly talked of their
accomplishments.
Cu’s intense patriotism made him an implacable foe of the Viet Cong.
He vowed that he would never permit his family to live under
Communist rule and swore to fight against the Communists as long as
he lived. His aggressiveness made him ideal for Mo Cay. For years
prior to his arrival, except for the district seat and a string of
outposts between Mo Cay and the provincial capital of Ben Tre, the
district had been effectively controlled by the Viet Cong. During
the 1968 Tet Offensive, the Viet Cong entered and destroyed most of
Mo Cay itself. They had effective control of the rich agricultural
economy of the district, and travel to adjacent districts was
impossible. It was to this almost hopeless situation that Cu came in
1968.
He had amazing success. Through sheer force of personality he slowly
improved the local security situation. The prevalent attitude of
apathy and defeat was replaced by an attitude of optimism. Aided
initially by a young American captain who served as a district
senior adviser, Cu reasserted friendly government strength for the
first time in a decade. His accomplishments were awesome in scope
and epic in their results.
What was in 1968 a Viet Cong district became by 1971 a district of
strong governmental presence with renewed economic vigor and
aggressive military forces. New bridges opened up areas closed to
traffic for years. Produce flowed to markets, and the district town
was rebuilt from the ashes. (It was Mo Cay, not Ben Tre, that was
the subject of the epic quotation of the Tet Offensive: “We had to
destroy the town in order to save it.”) Officials at higher levels,
both Vietnamese and American, attributed the success in Mo Cay to
Cu’s force and influence. He bullied, commanded, connived, cajoled,
yelled, whispered and politicked, and in so doing, achieved results
of heroic proportions. His methods of operation were unorthodox even
in Vietnam. Cu combined stubbornness with genuine knowledge of his
district’s needs, and with single-minded purpose he set out to
accomplish his goals.
Cu presented a real challenge to his American advisers. He was a man
of great ability, vision and depth. He was also ethnocentric to a
high degree, a tremendous egotist and a leader who established his
own order of priorities. As a result, the counterpart relationship
between Cu and his advisers was a stormy one that ranged from close
cooperation to open conflict. Cu never hesitated to disagree with
his advisers, his fellow district chiefs or his superiors. His
ability to get things done despite this constant series of
confrontations won him the secret admiration of his peers even when
he was using assets originally scheduled for use elsewhere in the
province. Cu held firm views on the relative roles of the district
chief and the American advisory team assigned to assist him, and
often his views conflicted with the official line laid down by his
superiors.
Cu had tremendous respect for American military might and technical
know how, and he was deeply appreciative of America’s economic
assistance to the people of his rural district. But he could not
abide what he considered to be the Americans’ woeful lack of insight
into the nature of the conflict in Vietnam and their failure to
understand the Vietnamese culture in waging war. He was an expert on
communism and guerilla warfare, and he viewed the American policy as
naively preoccupied with machines and computers. He felt Americans
were foolish and naïve in their ignorance of the realities of
guerrilla warfare. He felt strongly that the war should be fought as
a Vietnamese war, not as an American war, and he vigorously pursued
his own concepts of fighting in Mo Cay district.
Cu was also bitter at what he considered to be a lack of
understanding and sincerity on the part of most Americans in
Vietnam. He felt contempt for officers who came to Vietnam to get
their tickets punched and move on in their careers. As a Vietnamese
fighting for the life of is country, he believed too many Americans
were in Vietnam only for personal advancement.
Despite all the controversy about his methods, there was little
question about his ability. Cu’s leadership was often spectacular,
and he controlled his military forces with an iron hand. He was the
equal of any American commander, but he lacked the extensive modern
training and equipment available to American forces. He became
frustrated when he could not accomplish a task because of a lack of
troops or tactical assets, and reflected his frustration by
deliberately ignoring his advisers or defying his superiors.
For their part, angry advisers accused Cu of indecisiveness, lack of
interest, and corruption. There was truth on both sides, yet the
tragedy of the growing rift between Cu and the Americans was the
lack of understanding for the two completely different viewpoints
involved. The impasse was a cultural gap, and an issue of grave
concern for the continued ability of the government in Mo Cay to
resist the enemy.
Into this badly deteriorating situation came a remarkable American
officer as the new district senior adviser to Mo Cay. Major George
B. (Byron) Reed was a prematurely gray Carolinian with a wealth of
prior advisory experience. He rapidly developed a remarkable
counterpart relationship with Cu. A student of Vietnamese history
and culture, the American major was able to discuss these subjects
intelligently, and the two men used their mutual love of history and
philosophy to cement their association into firm respect and
friendship. While history and philosophy seem unusual subjects for
the battlefield, the discussions rescued on adviser-commander
relationship that was in danger of complete collapse.
Cu spent hours with his new adviser, discussing long into the night
on subjects Vietnamese, interspersed with the more prosaic topics of
tactical operations and strategic plans for civilian pacification.
An Oriental philosopher and intellectual, Cu delighted in comparing
the Vietnamese and American cultures. He had visited the United
States and was pleased to find a friend with whom he could converse
on the vagaries between East and West.
For his part, the American took advantage of the opportunity to
plant ideas in Cu’s mind for future consideration. In these highly
unusual circumstances, it was an opportunity for communication that
had been sorely missed. The unorthodox system worked. Resources
allocated to Mo Cay were put to good use. Cu planned and built new
bridges, markets and schools. Well –trained military forces attested
to his tactical ability with a series of small but significant
victories. Cu’s previous attitude of obstructionism and bitterness
disappeared. He still chose local officials because of their
personal loyalty rather than ability, but he had an acute sense of
popular moods and he knew what the people of Mo Cay needed most.
Colonel Cu’s hatred of the Vietnamese Communists made him an intense
foe of a negotiated settlement with the Viet Cong. When his adviser
once asked him what he would do if a cease-fire plan came in effect,
Cu replied with characteristic candor: “The Viet Cong will never
really cease their fire, and neither will I. I will fight them until
I die.” This fervor, expressed months before the signing of the 1973
Paris Peace Accords, was a graphic illustration of the feelings of
the fighters in this war.
Nguyen Van Cu viewed death on the battlefield as the sole reason he
would stop fighting. An animist as well as a Buddhist (as are most
Vietnamese), Cu believed that he would return to fight his enemies
in another life. He often referred to events far in the future with
the phrase “when I return,” invoking the deeply rooted Vietnamese
belief in reincarnation. Such reasoning by a modern, well-educated
engineer officer is hard for the Western mind to accept, but it
plays a major role in understanding Nguyen Van Cu.
Because of his belief that he would return to fight again after
death, Cu was absolutely fearless on the battlefield. He strolled
along almost casually on tactical operations as if daring the enemy
to fire. On one occasion he led an operation through a heavily
booby-trapped enemy base area without casualties; on another
operation he took the point on a night march, disregarding the
danger of mines, booby traps, and enemy snipers. Of such
performances are legends made.
During the 1972 North Vietnamese offensive, Mo Cay district was hard
hit. Seven enemy battalions were ravaging the district, and Cu was
everywhere, rallying his outnumbered troops to beat back a
continuous series of major attacks. At the height of the offensive,
provincial forces mounted a major operation in Mo Cay district but
placed a province staff officer in command of the forces. Pride and
vanity wounded, Cu planned his own parallel operation without
consulting the province chief. Ostensibly a small operation to
reconstitute an outpost overrun by enemy forces, Cu’s plan was, in
reality, a major operation against a full-strength North Vietnamese
battalion. It was foolish mistake, undertaken in a fit of pique.
Colonel Cu insisted on leading the operation himself instead of
remaining at his command post, a tactical error of major proportions
and a step his American adviser and friend urged him no tot take.
Stung by the presence of troops not under his command and aching for
combat, Cu disregarded the advice and continued on in the field. But
the enemy had intelligence sources, too, and was waiting for Colonel
Cu. The jungle erupted in the violence of a major ambush. Fearlessly
marching erect, Cu urged his men through the ambush zone, helping
wounded men to safety and directing fire on the battlefield. It was
an incredibly brave performance. Major Reed later described it
succinctly as “sheer John Wayne.” Friendly forces carried the fight
to the numerically stronger enemy forces and extricated themselves
from a bad tactical situation.
But Nguyen Van Cu had tempted fate once too often. An enemy rocket
explored in the midst of the command group, and the “Maverick of Mo
Cay” was killed instantly. A valorous company commander and the
painfully wounded Reed (he later received the last Silver Star Medal
awarded for ground combat in Vietnam) brought the stunned forces out
of the trap.
The death of a legend is hard to accept. Nguyen Van Cu was indeed a
maverick. His views often conflicted with those of his superiors,
his peers and his advisers. He spoke his mind as he saw fit and
expressed himself forcefully in a quiet-voiced society. Cu was proud
of his country and its heritage and was determined to defend them.
He was Vietnamese, proud of his patriotism, his people and his
culture. He was determined that no enemy would subvert them and no
friend would disregard them. He loved his country with great fervor,
and his flaws were those on the side of his love. He was a man of
great contradictions and of misunderstood values, but one who stood
up for his beliefs. When the moment of reckoning arrived, he died
fighting to preserve those things in which he believed most. No man
can do more.
