Combat Tactical Zone: I
Tactical Area of Operation: Quang Tri Province, south of the DMZ at Con Thien

This operation followed Operation CIMARRON and was succeded by Operation HICKORY II. Con Thien, because of its position, was widely considered to be the most important natural observation post along the DMZ. Prior to BUFFALO, PAVN troops were positioning across the DMZ to invade Quang Tri Province. On 2 July Companies A and B of the 1/9 came under fire from PAVN battalions in positions designated for regrouping and employment of heavy artillery. Company C was deployed to Company B's area and tanks from Company D were sent. Company D secured the LZ aand evacuated casualties. Later, the 3/9 was sent in to assist the 1/9. There was constant heavy artillery fire and mortar. On 3 July BLT 1/3 joined the battle, as did BLT 2/3 on the next day. The plan was to drive north in an attempt to push th PAVN out of the Lang Son area. Both battalions were under heavy artillery fire. Throughout the night of the 6th, PAVn continued to pressure the Marines. On the 7th Company A pulled back to the battalion perimeter.

Cambodian Incursion
Operation
Dates: 4/29/1970 - 6/30/1970
Combat Tactical Zone: III
Tactical Area of Operation: Cambodia

Excursions into Cambodia began in April when RVN forces initiated raids against Communist bases in Parrot's Beak. There were 13 major combat operations in Cambodia during the following months, two of which included U.S. ground units. The other operations were accompanied by U.S. advisors and supported by U.S. air assets. In all, this was the largest series of Allied operations since JUNCTION CITY. There were three groups of operations: TOAN THANG (Total Victory) with ARVN III Corps and U.S. II Field Force; CUU LONG (Mekong) with ARVN IV Coprs; and BINH TAY (Tame the West) with ARVN II Corps and U.S. I Field Force. The ARVN units would reach deeper than 60 kilometers into Cambodia, while the U.S. forces would not push farther than 30 kilometers inside the borders. TOAN THANG 42 was an entirely ARVN operation meant to clear Communist base areas in the Parrot's Beak. During some phases of the operation, the ARVN and National Khmer Armed Forces (FANK) worked together. Eventually they had thwarted the Communist plans to overthrow the Lon Nol regime and captured or killed 3,588. During TOAN THANG 43-46, joint U.S.-ARVN operations worked to clear communist sanctuaries in the Fishhook area. The mission largely became one of search-and-destory when it became obvious that the PAVN would avoid open-battlefield confrontations. The 1st Cavalry stumbled across many supplies during this time, and this part of the Cambodian incursion accounted for 3,190 Communist troops killed or captured. Increased Communist activity forced TOAN THANG 46 to end by 20 June. The ARVN operation CUU LONG I began on 9 May to open the Mekong River. ARVN divisions cleared the banks of the river and repatriated nearly 20,000 Vietnamese in refugee camps. In CUU LONG II, ARVN IV Corps and FANK forces worked together to recapture Takeo and clear Routes 2 and 3. Finally in CUU LONG III, ARVN IV Corps again joined FANK forces to reestablish control over towns and evacuate more ethnic Vietnamese. About this same time, the Allies began to attack bases in Cambodia facing II Corps. These operations were designated BINH TAY I-IV and included ARVN 22d and 23d Infantry divisions, the 2d Ranger Group, the 2d Armor Brigade, and two U.S. 4th Infantry Division brigades. However U.S. participation was brief. The 4th Division ws overextended, and upon attempting to insert into Cambodia, they suffered significant casualties and several downed helicopters. By 16 May, all 4th Division troops had left Cambodia and turned the operation over to the ARVN. In BINH TAY II, ARVN units uncovered more supplies and weapons and in BINH TAY III they searched for Enemy Base Area 740. In BINH TAY IV, ARVN troops pushed back to a FANK garrisonn at Labang Siek and evacuated its 7,000 Khmer soldiers and dependents across the border into Pleiku Province. By 27 June, all II Corps ARVN troops had left. U.S. ground troops left Cambodia by 30 June, but ARVN units continued to operate up to 60 kilometers inside Cambodia all the way into 1971. Throughout the invasion, there were 2,328 Communist soldiers who rallied or were captured. Though the Cambodian incursion captured ten times the supplies captured in Vietnam the previous year, temporarily reduced pressure on Lon Nol, lessened dangers to withdrawing U.S. troops, and displayed ARVN improvement, it was not as succesful as believed. It became obvious that the ARVN depended on U.S. air support and had numerous problems on the tactical and organizational level. This appeared again during the operations in Laos in 1971. The Communists quickly returned to eastern Cambodia and seized more towns in southern Laos while expanding the Ho Chi Minh Trail. As the U.S. continued to withdraw, the ARVN had to deploy troops in III Corps and reduce their strength in the north. The Communist threat grew. Meanwhile in the U.S., the anitwar movement gained a new rallying point. In the end, the Cambodian Invasion turned the war into one for all of Indo-China, which ARVN and FANK troops could not defend on their own.
