We Were Soldiers Once... And Young (OF)
Kurzfilm: 8cht (7 min)
We are moving into the Valley of the Shadow of Death...
The rugged terrain of Vietnam prompted Pentagon strategists to deploy troops by helicopter.
They picked Lt. Col. Hal Moore, a Harvard graduate with an International Relations degree,
to command the newly redesignated Airborne 7th Cavalry, the same regiment as
General George Armstrong Custer eighty-nine years earlier. This is the story of the
bloodiest three days of the battle of Ia Drang in the Central Highlands of Vietnam;
the first -- and perhaps the worst -- major battle of the Vietnam War.
I wonder what was going through Custer's mind when he realised
he had led his men into a slaughter.
