When I was younger, I read one of my dad's VFW magazines. In there was a story about 12 soldiers dropping into an area for a small mission. Unknown to them, a whole battalion(10,000+) of NVA soldiers were coming through on the way to a mission. It was a brave and vallient fight, and I think the only 4 out of the 12 died, while they killed 1,000+ Vietnamese.

Anybody heard of this story before? Anybody have more information on it or where I can get some?

Do a search for "The longest war" and then send them an email....it will go out to all people who are on the email list, some of them are Vets from the era, they might know.
