The Captured Documents Collection
Containing some 700,000 documents, this collection is the most important unexplored source on the war as it was fought in the hamlets and villages of South Vietnam. Through administrative correspondence and battlefield orders, personal diaries, letters and poems, it provides a view of the conflict through the eyes of soldiers and civilians in the countryside.
A total of 100 reels of microfilm, each reel 1,000 feet long, was created as American troops withdrew from Saigon. Copies of the collection are also stored at the National Archives and Texas A & M University.
More information can be found in the Healey Library Archives.
