Scenario description: Fictional based VERY loosely on real events.*
*
After being mauled during Operation Buffalo (July 2-5, 1967) Brovo Company 1st Bn/9th Marines established a Fire Base in "Indian Country", a valley south of Da Nang that neither the Japanese nor the French had ever been able to garrison.*
*
Ho Chi Minh called them "Di bo chet" (The Walking Dead) during a radio broadcast.  As far as they were concerned this was perfect, the easiest way to find the NVA/VC was to let them find you!*
*
Charlie 1/9 and Lima 3/1 (with it's new "Micky Mouse" guns, the M-16) are on the way to reinforce, can you hold?*
*
Note: If played against the AI, the human player should play the USMC side.*
