White Elephant Beaten by U S Special Forces in Ben Het
The Ben Het encampment, built by the 4th Infantry Division and now manned by Montagnard irregulars, American artillerymen, and Green Berets, faces heavy daily bombardment from Cambodian-based artillery and close-range small arms. A Green Beret recalls the move from Dak To as a bad bargain, while the base endures nightly sapper attacks and persistent mortar fire as South Vietnamese command asserts control amid tensions with the North. The Scoppa-led team, with a German shepherd, remains vigilant atop Main Hill as the outpost battles to survive.
