[edit] Article needs some work

Besides needing cleanup there's some information that would add some value to this article. 1. the reason Con Thien was under heavey assualt. It provided a perfect stategic view for routes leading south. 2. The muddy conditions there are not mentioned. The mud bogged down everthing that moved. The only vehicle that could move around was the LVT. http://homepages.vvm.com/~sstickley/Gordon/Img0088.htm 3. "Hill of Angels" is the local name for it. 4. The road lead to the hill was minded so heavily that they bulldozed a completely different road to it.War (talk) 18:35, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
