When the city of Hue invaded by NVA regulars during the Tet Offensive, there was wide scale slaughter that the media conveniently and uniformly overlooked. Now, because they ignored it then, it never happened. Ask anybody from the 5th Marine Division.

An old friend of mine was in either 10th Marines or 12th Marines at Hue. He once told me he didn't see much combat where he was....

He made the cover of LIFE magazine once, too, he was carrying a friend who stepped on a mine, him and one other guy carried that friend.
