Lost at Khe Sanh: Ghosts of War

In the spring of 1968, the United States military launched a massive offensive into the A Shau Valley of South Vietnam. The goal of the operation was to cut off the Ho Chi Minh Trail, a vital supply route for the North Vietnamese Army. However, the operation quickly bogged down, and the American forces found themselves surrounded by a much larger enemy force.
