"Sappers in the wire: The Life and Death of Fire Base Mary Ann."

In the early morning hours of March 28, 1971, a Viet Cong sapper platoon assaulted a remote hilltop artillery base in the Quang Tin Province of South Vietnam. When the attack was over 30 Americans were dead and another 80 wounded.

Kind of feel sorry for them and kind of don't. You let your guard down and you suffer the consequences.

Might not be a bad read for the younger troops.
