Map started. I think the hardest part of this was figuring out where it was and getting the map done, but the benning link had a roughmap from which I could sort of align with a Google map of Kontum Province.
Yet to figure out what went on and what units were involved etc.
The scenario starts off on about 3 June when the 42 ARVN are sent to relieve the Toumorong Outpost. I have put an ARVN company there to reflect the original garrison. In support the 21st rangers and 1st 327 are air lifted into blocking further North. I will mark these estimated landing zones LZ1 and LZ2 although icant find official names or locations, just looking at the benning map. Also, to come in support are2nd 502 and 2nd 320 to the East (air insertion LZ3) and also and CIDG and ARVN comapny from Dak To. There were some small engagements but this first phase was carried out quite successfully.
