How do you evacuate a unit that's being over run in the middle of the night, because during tet this problem did arise many times , so really the question is can it be done and 90% of the time it was at night because at night the enemy can in effect neutralize air support and artillery fire .

The best way was to bring in more troops and make a stand of it , if more troops were not available the people on the ground had to hold on and fight it out until help could arrive . many times the troops in distress would dig in and call in artillery on their own position .
