The thirty-seventh session of A Week in Binh Long. There is a lot more Viet Cong activity during this session. Minh Thanh was attacked, but superior firepower and defensive position saved the day. Only one platoon remains of the two Viet Cong companies that attacked the base. Elsewhere, the Viet Cong force around Firebase KENTUCKY was finally destroyed and the 2d/28th Infantry is starting to fly to the east to Area IOWA. Unfortunately, Area IOWA found me running into two ambushes by the Viet Cong and I lost my supply trucks and their escorts. Down at Ben Cat, the Viet Cong have captured the town and my ARVN counterattack is not going so well, as a platoon has already been overrun. Otherwise, there are scattered Viet Cong forces around while the other battalions continue on with their missions. It's a more hectic day, but fun!
