[Plei Me, RT TL6C, Pleiku Province, South Vietnam]: [SIDE A] [HIS] [CSL]:

After the relief of the Plei Me Special Forces camp, elements of the 1st Brigade/1st Cavalry Division were tasked with Search and Destroy missions to the west of Plei Me in hopes of catching the retreating 32nd and 33rd NVA Regiments. A number of combat assaults were performed from Plei Me to the border, leading to little to no contact.

The morning of November 1st was turning out to be much the same until elements of B/1st/9th Cavalry Squadron while screening the southern operations area spotted some NVA in the area around Ia Tae. Using scouts, gunships and the aero-rifle platoon on the ground, the Cavalry unit engaged the North Vietnamese, killing and wounding a number.

During the action, the aero-rifle platoon had stumbled upon an aid station about regimental strength. The fight intensified around the makeshift hospital as both sides continued to funnel in reinforcements before the North Vietnamese broke contact at dusk.

Totally unbalanced in my opinion.

As the NVA I never received any reinforcements but they weren't needed. The Americans never found my Hospitals and his units were easy targets for my troops. Maybe someone else will have a different and more positive experience.
