Description

In 1968 in South Vietnam, a US infantry battalion was ordered to charge a fortified North Vietnamese Army force 200 yards away, over an open field without artillery or air support. When the Lost Battalion finally escaped encirclement, after nine hours, fighting against an enemy that outnumbered them three to one, the tragic episode disappeared from official memory and relevant US Army records. This is the story of the event, told in the words of those present.
