About Lang Vei Siege: The Most Daring Special Forces Raid of The Vietnam War?
At the height of the Vietnam War, a US Special Forces camp was overwhelmed by a fierce armored tank, trapping 8 Green Berets inside an underground concrete bunker. Their only hope was a rescue operation led by a small group of commandos. On 31 January 1968, North Vietnam violated a truce when the NVA (North Vietnamese Army) launched attacks in South Vietnam, and United States Embassy in Saigon was taken over by enemy invaders. Caught in the invasion was a small special forces camp called Lang Vei where South Vietnamese troops were being trained for combat. Through personal interviews we learn how the battle of Lang Vei became a testament to the Green Berets' unwavering resolve against overwhelming odds.
