Getting into some more obscure titles, but these three are my favorites;

Platoon Leader: A Memoir of Command in Combat

The Only War We Had: A Platoon Leader’s Journal of Vietnam

Vietnam, 1969 - 1970: A Company Commander's Journal

And for a perspective of the Army immediately following the Vietnam War, try this;

The Battles of Peace

The last three titles are by Michael Lee Lanning. Superb writing. A great story line "arc" of his experiences in Vietnam and just beyond.
