HELL ON A HILL TOP—for four months in 1970, Hell
raged on the hill tops of Ripcord, 805, 902, and 1000, all just east of the A Shau
Valley. Instead of backing away from the fight, the North Vietnamese mortar, recoilless
rifle, heavy machine gun, sapper and regular infantry attacks increased. The last
offensive around Ripcord was starting to look like the last stand.
Unwilling to keep American soldiers at high risk at this stage of the war; Ripcord
was evacuated on 23 July. The battle went unnoticed for 30 years until Keith Nolan’s
book, RIPCORD, was published. As powerful and gripping as was the story of great
leadership and courageous fighting by our soldiers, the magnitude of the enemy force
still remained unknown.
The author, the 3rd Brigade commander during the siege and evacuation, made trips
to Vietnam in 2001 and 2004 and interviewed the 324B Division commander whose first-ever
division's sole mission, was to destroy Firebase Ripcord. The full story is
now told.
