August 18- All through the previous night we had sped at flank speed to arrive on station off Van Tuong peninsula. The air danced with awkward-looking helicopters and sleek jet tactical bombers. They dipped and soared, the jets leaving behind ugly black mushrooms of smoke and dust while the helos busily ferried men and material into the jungle. The crack 1st Viet Cong regiment was massed on the peninsula, and was poised for a surprise attack on Chu Lai, 12 miles to the north. But a noose had been slipped around their necks. Moving by land, sea, and air, U.S. Marines surrounded them on three sides. On the fourth Galveston and the destroyers Pritchett and Orleck cut off escape by sea. Galveston s guns spoke, and again thunder rolled over the Vietnamese jungle. 52
