Its Khe San...it was just south of the old demilitarized zone which is about in the center of Vietnam now. The battel was basically a siege by the North Vietnamese to erase an artillery base that was interfering with the North Vietnamese attempt to bring in suplliles etc. for th war in the South. It wound up like a piece of bait to bring in the Vietnamese so the US planes and artillery could chew them up...It was hell on earth....you can't imagine

a top of a hill controlled by the U.S. with superior forces from an elevated position they thought they could control the road and supply line below. but just across the road was either Laos or Cambodia (can't remember which) so the north retreated there every night. and we couldn"t bomb there. westmoreland never admitted defeat at khe sahn, he just decided it was no longer significant but we got our a-ss kicked!!!
