Full Metal Jacket (1987). USMC marine squad in the Battle of Hue during the Tet Offensive. A story taken from "The Short-Timers [read: draftees] (1979). Inarguably,the favorite war movie of a generation, especially those unlucky souls bound for Paris Island or San Diego. Who can forget R. Lee Ermey as Gunnery Sergeant Hartman.
The naming convention of the NVA and VC formations followed their AO. Something like B1 may have been Central Highlands, etc.
You may have a similar map already, but anyway here is one I found. So, I see 7 battalions, so let's say a division.
I just finished FSW Ten Hammers on my old PS2 giving me a few hours to check out our game. FSW is a great game BTW.
