A Marine M48 main battle tank blasts an infantry objective with its powerful 90mm main gun. Tanks firing all along the 2/5 front, wherever they could find a field of fire, were instrumental in the day’s successes. (Official USMC Photo)

A Marine probes through the ruins of a home or public building. This was tense, dangerous work, but every room of every building has to be eyeballed before Marines could put it behind them. (Official USMC Photo)

Above and next page: Wherever possible, dead Communist soldiers were dragged to open areas, both to be sure they were really dead and to make searches for intelligence data safer and more efficient. These photos are two views of a covey of NVA killed along Fox/2/5’s axis of advance. (Courtesy of Alexander Kandic)
