Don Lomax's critically acclaimed Vietnam Journal is back as Scott 'Journal' Niethammer reports on the events leading up to and the siege of firebase Ripcord. A story of over-confidence, arrogance, and revenge on the part of Military Assistance Command Vietnam in Saigon, coupled with an under-strength U.S. force sent to face an enemy who outnumbers them ten to one. It is a story of the senseless waste of young American lives, as was Hamburger Hill before it. Collects issues #11-15.
