Trích đoạn:
However, as stated in the beginning, Willis noticed that there were ominous signs that this early enthusiasm of an easy American victory would be a false illusion. While studying at New River, he came to the frightening realization that while American soldiers were trained to fight against Communism, the North Vietnamese showed an entirely different mentality, that is they were prepared to die for communism! "Marble Mountain" is full of examples of North Vietnamese tenacity, proving them to be an unrelenting opponent that would pick the time and place of most engagements. The North Vietnamese degree of fanaticism to prevail included propelled them to unimaginable feats like digging miles of underground tunnels that rendered their soldiers invisible to American satellites, helicopters and spotter planes. They had anti aircraft heavy caliber automatic weapons that had to be rolled hundreds of miles from the North on primitive wheels that looked to Willis like something straight out of the Confederate Army. These big guns were operated by gunners that when killed, their corpses were discovered chained to their weapons so they couldn't run away. There was no emergency extraction from a Huey; they fought to the death! Willis made some other statements in this book that foretold the way this conflict would shape up. In assessing their method of fighting a first rate power, Willis remarked: The North Vietnamese have a cockroach mentality and almost always prepare an underground escape route before exposing their position. We own the skies, and they own the underground.
