The Vietnam War dragged on for a decade, playing out on television screens across America in a litany of death, destruction and confusion. But perhaps no other battle galvanized attention on the war as much as Khe Sanh, a 77-day siege for control of a base with minimal strategic value.
UNSUNG HEROES examines one of the most perplexing battles from the conflict that many Americans--including those fighting it--had difficulty understanding. It was a political chess game with soldiers used as pawns. The fighting was so intense and prolonged that skeletons of the enemy dead were suspended in barbed wire lines surrounding the base. But no matter how bravely the defenders fought, the sheer numbers of the NVA attackers ensured that they would ultimately have to abandon Khe Sanh.
Through archival footage and recollections from the soldiers who were there, UNSUNG HEROES tells the story of the siege that, for many, came to symbolize the entire war in Vietnam.
...Our Central Highland 'Yards, known as Degars, numbered over 3.5 Million when the Communist Bullies from the North took over the South and have always been in the way of the Ethinic Vietnamese from taking complete control of the Highlands.
...Thru their superior ethnic sterilization, terrorism and genocidal methods on the Degars ...only 600,000 are left and still sinking.
...Former Vietnam Veteran and Senator JOHN KERRY (D) is personally blocking a Vietnam Human Rights Bill HR-2833 from leaving his Senate Committee to go to the Senate Floor for a vote that would SANCTION Communist Vietnam for its purposeful genocide of the Diggers.
...Let's let him have it with our phone calls to ask him WHY..???.
