Discover how 400 Marines from India Company held Hill 881 South for 77 brutal days during the Siege of Khe Sanh—surrounded by 10,000 NVA troops, enduring constant artillery bombardment, and surviving on rationed water and cold C-rations. Led by Captain William Dabney, these men raised the American flag every morning while enemy shells exploded around them, defying the NVA in an act of pure defiance. By the time they walked off that hill, nearly every man had been killed or wounded. This is the untold story of the "Walking Dead" and the longest, bloodiest hilltop siege of the Vietnam War.
