COMBAT STORIES FROM Vietnam

George Ferkes | 20th Tactical Air Support Squadron - Air Force

3:56   |   Operation Lam Son 719 was an attempt by the South Vietnamese forces to cut the Ho Chi Minh trail and disrupt the supply of Communist forces in the South. George Ferkes supported them by calling in air strikes where needed. The campaign went so badly that, eventually, he was calling in strikes to destroy abandoned armor.
