Hill 881N 1967

In May of 1967 U.S. Marines fought a series of battles for hills overlooking a then obscure base – Khe Sanh. It was the single bloodiest battle of the war up to that point. Marines lost 168 men killed and 443 wounded. It was also the first battle where Marines used the M-16, which many blame for the high death toll. This film features interviews with survivors. It was shot by my son Cutter Hodierne. I took all of the still photos, more of which can be found at my website, vietnamphotography.com. @ProfHodierne
