Quotes by S.C.M. Paine (?)

“Despite the shameless false advertising from air power buffs, precision bombing did not become technically feasible for nearly three decades, until late in the Vietnam War.”

“As U.S. forces later discovered in the long Vietnam War, conventional and guerrilla operations are different items; expertise in the one form of warfare does not translate to the other.”
― S.C.M. Paine, The Wars for Asia, 1911–1949
