Map of the four military corps

The Marines of the 1st and 3rd divisions of the Marine Corps were deployed in the first corps in central Vietnam. Composed together of up to eight marine infantry Regiments, they were heavier in infantry strength and digging in for protracted combat such as at Khe Sanh. With the continuous fighting and regular patrolling in mine infested populated areas they took more casualties than in the noted actions of World War 2.

The American ground units, with their enormous firepower, ranged widely in search of the communist forces. During the course of the war, the communist units frequently challenged the large US units, particularly indecency of base areas, but generally tried to pick places and timing of their own choosing. They depended heavily thus on the use of sanctuaries in the forests and over the border in Cambodia and Laos. The Americans never lost a major battle, but the communists kept the blood flowing such that some of 58,193 US personnel died during the war and 300,000 US personnel wounded during the war.
Out of this the 1st Marines Division lost 4,668
Out of this 1st Reconnaissance Battalion lost 244
Out of this 1st Recon Bravo Company lost 45
During the war it was in the summer of ‘69 when President Nixon had announced immediate but gradual withdrawal of US troops Now at a Peak of 543,000 and after all the dead to date and 260,000 wounded so far and about the seem time.
