Résumé
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The NVA drew more fire than they delivered. The 105mm howitzers of Captain David F. Rich's B/2319th and the 155s of Captain Gordon A. Baxendale's A/211th Field Artillery were booming in response to the NVA.#2 The allies had the firepower, but the terrain favored the enemy, who remained mostly unseen under the jungle canopy as they alternated their fire from numerous locations. The key terrain features around Hill 927, atop which Ripcord was built, included Hill 805, situated across a sharp draw from the southeast end of the firebase ridgeline at four o'clock.#3 The enemy concentrated his fire on Captain Rich's battery on the highest part of Ripcord. The artillerymen continued to fire, and the enemy only put about thirty rounds in the air, half of which overshot Ripcord.#4 The attack on Hill 805 was carried out by Company B, commanded by Captain William J. Williams. The troops were not anxious to go into battle under him, but they had to obey his orders. He was a pugnacious, highly experienced combat officer.
