[Binh Gia, 67 km SW of Saigon, South Vietnam]: [SIDE A / H2H] [HIS] [CSL]:
The seesaw battle of Binh Gia ended with the 4th Marines and Rangers retaking the village.
Gunships of the 68th Assault Helicopter Company pursued the retreating Viet Cong units into the Quang Giao rubber plantation. One of the gunships were hit by ground fire and crashed in the plantation, the crew perished on impact.
Elements of the 4th Marines expanded their perimeter to the east and advanced into the plantation to recover the downed crew. Shortly after the Marine company arrived on the scene, an artillery barrage landed amongst the unit, followed shortly by waves of Viet Cong. The rest of the 4th Marines were then sent to rescue the beleaguered company.
Meanwhile, the Viet Cong 271st Regiment had reorganized and prepared for a fight.
