1 vs 200 Door to Door Special Forces Battle - Vietnam War Medal of Honor

In the middle of the Tet Offensive, perhaps the most emblematic episode of the Vietnam War, the North Vietnamese People's Army of Vietnam and the Viet Cong, executed a brutal joint assault across the entire southern half of the nation during a supposed cease-fire.

Within 56 hours after the attack began, Sergeant Drew Dennis Dix led a handful of American, South-Vietnamese, and allied troops in the liberation of the Province of Chau Doc. It was a rare but decisive victory in the chaotic circumstances. A total of 200 enemies were killed or captured thanks to the heroics of Dix, who inspired an otherwise fatigued and rag-tag force.

During the battle, Dix went door to door under intense machine gun and motor fire. For what he would do next, Dix would become the first enlisted Special Forces soldier to ever receive the Medal of Honor.
