1. Thanks, DemoTex

The bombed-out A Shau Valley (near Ta Bat) on a rare day mission during Lam Son 719. The NVA ran convoys down this valley later the same night with full headlights on. See parts of my short story, "Dogs of War," previously excerpted on DU, for a "fictional" account of bad trouble in Laos and an aeronautical limp over the A Shau valley.
