About this listen

When the North Vietnamese Army (NVA) planned to send 40,000 troops to attack the 6,000 US Marines at Khe Sanh in 1968, it expected a decisive victory. Certainly, the small US Special Forces camp in the way at Lang Vei would be quickly overcome. The tough, tenacious defenders at Lang Vei had other ideas. The two dozen US Army Green Berets and their 400 tribesmen at Lang Vei gave the NVA such a monumental headache that they became known as the “Route 9 problem”, all the way to the highest levels of the North Vietnamese government.

Even the NVA’s tanks - their first use in the war - couldn’t completely defeat the stubborn US fighters. More than an intense, moment-by-moment description of the battle, Route 9 Problem: The Battle for Lang Vei details the personal side - who these men were, how they got there, and who was waiting for them back home.
