E-Books →Abandoned in Hell The Fight For Vietnam's Firebase Kate

"A riveting, dead-true account in the tradition ofBlack Hawk DownandWe Were Soldiers Once...and Young."-Steven Pressfield, national bestselling author ofThe Lion's Gate
In October 1969, William Albracht, the youngest Green Beret captain in Vietnam, took command of a remote hilltop outpost called Firebase Kate held by only 27 American soldiers and 156 Montagnard militiamen. At dawn the next morning, three North Vietnamese Army regiments-some six thousand men-crossed the Cambodian border and attacked.
Outnumbered three dozen to one, Albracht's men held off the assault but, after five days, Kate's defenders were out of ammo and water. Refusing to die or surrender, Albracht led his troops off the hill and on a daring night march through enemy lines.
