Commando Hunt
Operation
Dates: 11/15/1968 - 4/10/1972
Combat Tactical Zone: Laos
Tactical Area of Operation: Ho Chi Minh Trail

During this time Laos became the third most bombed country in history. Each campaign in the operation lasted about six months and alternated between wet and dry seasons. Mostly the Air Force conducted these operations, though the U.S. Navy, Marines, and Royal Laotian Air Force also participated. The bombings focused on truck parks and storage areas during the day. At night, the planes attacked trucks. Also, passes from the DRV into Laos were bombed to casue landslides and at times RANCH HAND defoliation missions were flown along the trail. Predetermined sites were bombed near Tchepone, a key trans-shipment point, and in the four passes leading into Laos. However, COMMANDO HUNT failed due to the ability of the PAVN to control the war in the south and so control the amount of the supplies they needed. Also, the Ho Chi Minh Trail was all either paved or dirt road. There were no railroad yards or steal and concrete bridges to repair. The U.S. tried to measure their success by truck count, but these numbers were wildly estimated. At one time more trucks were reported destroyed than the CIA had estimated existed in the DRV. When the spring offensive began in 1972, COMMANDO HUNT was canceled, though bombing of the Ho Chi Minh Trail continued.

Con Thien, Siege of
Operation
Dates: - 10/31/1967
Combat Tactical Zone: I
Tactical Area of Operation: Con Thien, 14 miles inland from the South China Sea, 2 miles south of the DMZ

During July, the PAVN had attacked the hill of Con Thien from the DMZ. However, these forces were driven back by the Marines. Then again in September, the hill was attacked by the 324B PAVN Division. Con Thien experienced one of the heaviest shellings of the war. In early September, Marines engaged PAVN forces south of the hill. The 3d Battalion, 26 Marines fought a battle with the PAVN on 10 September, which foiled a major PAVN attack. Later, the PAVN attacked the perimeter. However, they were not able to breach the defensive wire. The Marines sent two more battalions to reinforce the hill, and the PAVN increased their artillery fire. This bombardment peaked from 19-27 September. The U.S. responded to all of this with great amounts of firepower. The combat had taken heavy casualties, though. The 2d Battalion, 4th Marines were reduced from 952 to about 300 men by the end of October. However, the area remained unforgiving as the monsoon season made the environment very difficult to operate in.
