...generally conceded to be South Viet Nam's most ineffectual. A U.S. general calls the 5th "absolutely the worst outfit I've ever seen," and a Vietnamese General Staff member was quoted as saying that until last year the 25th was "the worst division ever to enter any battlefield east of Suez."

Perhaps, in affairs of state, too much history is a bad thing for we live in a rapidly changing world, and all that.
