[15km West of An Khe, Indochina]: [ALL] [HIS] [CSL]:

After successfully watching the convoy of supplies be released to the elements of G.M. 11 and the Post of PK 11, Colonel Barrou ordered the two companies of the 1st Korea and two companies of the 43rd Colonial to turn around and head back to the fortified post of PK 22.

The telescoping, or leapfrogging, of the units began with the 43rd Colonial in the lead. Only the sound of the wind blowing through the elephant grass that filled the valley bottom keeping the men company, even the birds were silent.

As 4th Company/1st Korea nearly passed through 1st Company/1st Korea, elements of the Independent Viet-Minh 19th and 30th battalions sprung their big ambush. Two companies, a platoon of armour and a number of trucks was a worthy prize.
