My buddy Gill is a retired L.A.Times news paper reporter. He was a radio opperator in 68. Durring Tet he was at a FOB as part of a team that advised Kit Carson's. While they were not over run they were surrounded for a chunk of time. I thought it was interesting he would keep this this all these years.
