They lived in the field with the soldiers of one squad: marching, eating and sleeping with them, filming interviews and scenes for regular reports on the CBS Evening News with Walter Cronkite and, eventually, a one-hour documentary broadcast on the CBS Television network. The 105 man company was patrolling in the midst of a ferocious war zone in Tay Ninh Province, close to the Cambodian border. A sister battalion 2/8 suffered such heavy casualties it had to be withdrawn from the war zone. The troops were fiercely loyal to their company commander, who had kept casualties to a minimum by his careful rules in the field, one of which was never to walk down a trail. Never. When he was withdrawn from the field with heart trouble, his replacement, a LLRP captain, order the men to walk down an open road capable of taking trucks. The troops rebelled. The documentary tells the soldiers' stories, individually and collectively. Written by J. J. Green See less
