That anniversary is coming up, on November 14, 2015, and we should celebrate our first victory against a genocidal enemy.

Ia Drang a victory ? , it did set the way the war would be fought the enemy learned if they kept close contact the American couldn't use their massive fire power .

The USA NEVER lost a major battle in Vietnam. We won them all. But what we really "won" isn't all that clear to me. -Don- SSF, CA
