The ARVN unit advanced through the jungle, knowing that the NVA had a bunker complex, camp in the area. What they were unaware of was the mortar that the NVA possessed.
The first mortar barrage took put a quarter of the force, the second continued to chop them up as did the bunker with a LMG.
The first line of NVA added to the carnage. Eventually with a Skyraider support, the ARVN was able to land choppers to withdrawl the rest. The Communists held onto their positions.
