Combat After Action Report:
Battle of Lang Vei
5th Special Forces Group (Airborne), 1st Special Forces
Period 24 January - 7 February 1968

Special Thanks to the staff at the US Army War College Library, Carlisle Barracks; Carlisle, PA. for their assistance.

The Cover and first page of the document are scanned copies. The rest of the report was retyped to facilitate ease of reading and to speed download time. Every effort was made to adhear to the original. Typos in the original (noticed thanks to the modern day benefit of Spell Check) have been noted with [sic]. Editor's comments are also in braces;. i.e. in a few places the copies were illegible and so idicated.

Several pages of the Document were missing from the War College Library (at least 9 as far as I can tell.) Most notable of these was the absence of Team Seargeant William T. Craig's Survivor Statement.

The reader who is unfamiliar with The Battle of Lang Vei may wish to start by reading the last section, General Narrative of Events.
