Account of infantry combat in the battle of the Ia Drang Valley during the Vietnam War in November 1965.

In November 1965, some 450 men of the 1st Battalion, 7th cavalry, under the cammand of Lt. Col. Hal Moore, were dropped into a small clearing in the Ia Drang Valley. They were immediately surrounded by 2,000 North Vietnamese soldiers.

A follow-up to "We Were Soldiers Once . . . and Young" continues the stories of the soldiers introduced in the original memoir, as it returns to the Vietnam battlefield to reveal how the war has changed both them and their former enemies.
