Tropic Lightning History

On this date in 1966, the Battle of LZ 10-A took place.

During Operation Paul Revere in the Central Highlands, A/1-35IN and B/2-35IN of 3d Brigade conducted an air assault on 28 May, and immediately came under heavy attack from NVA forces. The communists were determined to destroy the Cacti, attacking with several battalions through the night of 28-29 May and into the morning. Fighting was intense as the Cacti held the LZ as the enemy closed to with gr***de range, but were pushed back. For their actions, A/1-35 and B/2-35 received Presidential Unit Citations.

Take Arms!
