In 1967, Operation Tuscaloosa sent 2nd Battalion, 5th marines into the hostile Song Thu Bon Valley. Their mission: to exterminate the viet cong. But a sandbar island in the river quickly became an island of death for the Marines who lay trapped there, pinned under merciless enemy fire. Seventeen would die. And that was just the beginning. |
