On January 1–2, 1968, Fire Support Base Burt (Suối Cụt) was struck in a fierce, multi-wave assault during what was supposed to be a holiday ceasefire. Soldiers fought through the night under mortar fire, RPGs, and ground attacks that reached the perimeter. The base held, but 23 Americans did not come home.

Today, Coolbeaners.net and The Micky Spano Show honor them together, name by name, because remembrance isn’t a headline, it’s a roll call.
