It is Spring in America. By 1972 the war in Vietnam is winding
down. At least that's what everyone thinks. Sergeant Mike Corbett
volunteers to retrieve classified weapons from a remote Post in the
Northern Province of QuangTri.
The Americans are leaving. But the Vietnamese Communists aren't
waiting. Corbett is caught up in the massive Easter offensive; on
the ground before Military Intelligence realizes the scope of the
enemy offensive.
A few hundred Americans, mostly technicians, are stranded in the
middle of Indian Country. Boogieman's out there; thousands of them.
The Americans hold their ground and plan a defense. Their Special
Weapons are useless in a firefight, so they are left with the same
M-16 as any grunt. Evacuation is not feasible. At stake are Weapons
Specialists and weapons components so sensitive that the
alternative to overrun is Emergency Demolition. The Big Bang.
The greatest fear is that a South Vietnamese collapse will leave
the isolated Americans as virtual hostages. March 1973 the last
U.S. troops will officially leave Vietnam. Corbett faces 365 and a
wake-up.
This is the Lost Battalion of the Vietnam War.
