We Are Soldiers Still
A Journey Back to the Battlefields of Vietnam
In their classic memoir, Lt. Gen. Harold Moore and journalist Joseph L. Galloway brought to life one of the most pivotal and heartbreaking battles of the Vietnam War. Now the co-authors bring readers up to date on the cadre of soldiers introduced in their first book.
Returning to Vietnam's Ia Drang Valley more than four decades after the battle, Moore and Galloway renew their relationships with ten American veterans of the fabled conflict—and with former adversaries—exploring how the war changed them all, as well as their two countries. We Are Soldiers Still is an emotional journey back to hallowed ground, putting a human face on warfare as the authors reflect on war's devastating cost.
The book includes an Introduction by Gen H. Norman Schwarzkopf.

Starred review from June 9, 2008
It would be a monumental task for Moore and Galloway to top their classic 1992 memoir, We Were Soldiers Once... and Young
. But they come close in this sterling sequel, which tells the backstory of two of the Vietnam War’s bloodiest battles (in which Moore participated as a lieutenant colonel), their first book and a 1993 ABC-TV documentary that brought them back to the battlefield. Moore’s strong first-person voice reviews the basics of the November 1965 battles, part of the 34-day Battle of the Ia Drang Valley. Among other things, Moore and Galloway (who covered the battle for UPI) offer portraits of two former enemy commanders, generals Nguyen Huu An and Chu Huy Man, whom the authors met—and bonded with—nearly three decades after the battle. This book proves again that Moore is an exceptionally thoughtful, compassionate and courageous leader (he was one of a handful of army officers who studied the history of the Vietnam wars before he arrived) and a strong voice for reconciliation and for honoring the men with whom he served. 16 pages of b&w photos.
