Description: The 119th unit history states that for the month their missions varied again because the VC and NVA had been driven back, killed or scattered by ground troops from the 4th Inf Div. With enemy movement halted or decreased, the ground troops were again extracted and replace by other companies.
Following several paragraphs that detail the move of the whole company to An Khe, the history contains a short summary. The rest of the month (after about the 15th) was the usual task of resupplying the 1st Bde and 2d Bde 4th Inf Div. There was negative confrontation with the enemy and missions were completed safely each day. Other units supported were the 7/15th Arty at An Khe, the 5th SF Group at Pleiku C team pad, and the engineers at Engineer Hill.
