Battle for Hue

By: Michael G. Thomas, Eric Meyer

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

The most intense and destructive urban battle of the Vietnam War has begun.

Early 1968. As the Tet Offensive erupts across South Vietnam, the ancient Imperial City of Huế becomes a battlefield. The streets run with fire and blood as North Vietnamese and Viet Cong forces strike without warning, shattering any illusion of peace.

Inside the Citadel, Lieutenant Loc and his Black Panther Recon Company find themselves surrounded, fighting for every wall and courtyard of Tây Lộc Airfield and the Mang Cá Garrison. Cut off from reinforcements, low on ammunition, and facing overwhelming enemy numbers, Loc’s men hold their ground through sheer discipline and courage, determined not to surrender the heart of their city. South of the Perfume River, Corporal Chris Jackman and his small team of Australian and American advisers join their ARVN allies in a desperate struggle to reclaim the southern districts of Huế. Street by street and house by house, they battle through shattered homes, temples, and markets under constant sniper fire and mortar attack. Every metre gained brings them closer to the Citadel, and to the trapped men fighting within.

From the flooded alleys of the Perfume River to the ruined gates of the old imperial capital, Battle for Hue is a visceral, character-driven story of courage, loyalty, and brotherhood in the face of impossible odds.
