Marines
move in - Troops of the 1st Marine Division move into an area
just south of DaNang, behind a heavy screen of tanks. The area
was believed to contain an enemy battalion command post. The
combined armor and infantry operation got underway after a helicopter
drop of two Marine companies into the area had to be canceled
when it encountered heavy fire from the ground.
