Hue's Hospital, Jail, Provincial Headquarters Recaptured
February 6, 1968, in Marine Corps history.
On February 6, 1968, two reduced Marine battalions, the 1st Battalion, 1st Marines with two companies, and 2nd Battalion, 5th Marines with three, recaptured Hue's hospital, jail, and provincial headquarters. It would take three more weeks of intense house-to-house fighting, and nearly a thousand Marines killed and wounded before the imperial city was secured.
OOH-RAH!
