It was around this time that ARVN in Laos began a route out of there. Route 9 was the only way out and I remember moving vehicles coming out of Laos just covered with gunless troops whose eyes were hugh and scared. They were in a panic. It kinda scared us wondering what was chasing them. Turned out to be 3 NVA Divisions. We fought a rear guard against them for a month falling back to Dong Ha. . It was the biggest longest worse month I have ever spent.
