  • Where Vietnam People's Army defeated the big raid of US Army in May,1969 and they had to leave this Mountain with more than 200 deaths...
  • Actually, where the NVA suffered more then 600 deaths and were sucessfully repelled by US and South Vietnamese forces in late may 1969. I know this because I was there.
  • At last, US troops run away, they left a lot of modern weapon as tanks, artilleries...From that day when they never come back and when remembering this battle they got frightened and named the hill 937: Humberger Hill, it means many us troops were killed with all their bodies grind down !
  • Seventy-two Americans and South Vietnamese killed and 630 of the enemy killed.
