20 - 21January: (Tuesday) battalion began the combat assault north of An Khe. On the first day, an insertion was attempted by Co A. The LZ was too hot and the air commander, “Ghost Rider” called off the air insertion over the objections of the battalion commander. Co C and D remained in An Khe another night. The battalion successfully inserted the remaining companies into separate LZs the next day January 21. Rifle companies were directed to break down in platoon-size units, conduct reconnaissance in force operations and send out nightly ambushes for the next ten days.(Hopkins:001)
23 January (Friday): Private Terrence Folsom of Delta Company is killed by enemy small arms sniper fire (Arnold KIA records, Dilkes:269).The 2d and 3d platoons were co-located in a perimeter and directed to send a patrol about a thousand meters away to pick up mail from the Company CP which co-located in a perimeter with 1st platoon. A joint six-man patrol was moving down a jungle trail when a sniper opened up with an AK-47 and fled. (Hopkins:001)
24 January (Saturday)Co D command group was hit with three RPGs as they stopped moving in an open field on the side of a mountain. Seven soldiers were wounded.

(4th Div Operational Report ending 30 April: 004) Found 10 miles north of An Khe. Two Chinooks took cache out by sling. (Hopkins:004)
MARCH 1970
Summary: During this month, the battalion began using stay behind forces as fire bases were closed to engage enemy that came into the locations to find equipment left by Americans. Companies also began to booby trap their trash piles with grenades following resupply days. Both tactical concepts produced results in dead/wounded enemy. (Hopkins:004)
10 March,(Tuesday) 2C/1-12 received enemy sniper fire. One U.S. WIA (Hopkins:004)
11 March Operation Earhart White, a division level operation employing the 1st and 2nd Brigades targeting against elements of the 3d NVA Division vicinity of the Dak Som River Valley begins. (4th Div Operational Report ending 30 April: 018)
March 11-18 Five battalions of 1st and 2d Brigade conducted a cordon operation (Operation “Earhart White”) forming a circle around a valley. The objective was to destroy elements of the 3d NVA division. Three battalions moved into the area overland and two battalions landed on mountain tops above the valley. With the element of surprise lost by the day-long CAs, few enemy were found as battalions swept down into the valley and units were directed to move back up the mountains for extraction. During the night, several NVA/VC slipped through the brigade cordon so, units were directed to again sweep again down in to the valley. Ultimately, no NVA/VC were located in the second sweep. However, on 13 March, the Commander, Co D and his RTO (1-12th) were wounded by a grenade booby trap while moving down the same trail for the second time in the operation. 2/35th in sweeping the valley floor, found a large NVA surgical complex with extensive equipment. The lesson learned from this divisional operations was to ensure a valid target exists before expending so many resources. (Hopkins:004)
16 March (Monday) the battalion operated out of FSB “Niagara” with companies conducting search missions in the mountains. Units returned to An Khe for approximately seven days of training. Rumors began to circulate during this time that the 4th Division would be returning to the states. These rumors would continue to circulate for the next six months.(Hopkins:004&005)

MAY 1970
May - The division entered Cambodia as part of Operation Binh Tay
2 May (Saturday) Co D was initially at FSB Aquarius, north of An Khe. The company moved out to patrol the next couple of days. (Hopkins: 006)
4 - 5 May (Monday-Tuesday) the battalion directed all companies to move as rapidly as possible to An Khe. This was the beginning of the Cambodian invasion. The battalion trucked by convoys to FSB “Oasis” for further air assaults into Cambodia. The 1/12th was originally scheduled to air assault on 6 May (D-day plus 1) following 1st Brigade. The 4th Division began preparations to deploy six battalions into Base Area 702. This enemy area was due west of Plieku. First Brigade would consist of 3/506th, 3/8th and 1/14th Infantry battalions. The 3/506th, from the 101st Division, had been attached to the first brigade on 24 April for their normal operations in Viet Nam. The 2d Brigade included 1/12th, 1/22th and 2/35th Infantry battalions. A key objective for the brigade was to find the location of the 24th NVA Regimental headquarters. Some 120 troop-carrying helicopters (slicks), plus gunships from nearly a dozen helicopter companies, as well as three companies of Chinook helicopters and one company of Skycranes would be used to support the 4th Division’s and brigade/battalion movements. For this massive air assault, the plan called for each single battalion to be inserted in one single lift. (Hopkins: 007)
5 May (Tuesday) 3/506th began their insertion. LZs were heavily prep’ed by Tac air and B-52 strikes. However, as it turned out later these prepatory efforts were ineffective. The lead companies of the 1st Brigade received extremely heavy fire from small arms, .51 caliber machineguns and 12.7mm anti-aircraft guns on their primary LZs. After attempting to use alternate LZs much of the first day, their assault was aborted. Later in the day, the 1/14th and 3/8th assaults were also aborted/cancelled. This delayed all other 4th Division battalions one full day and threw the entire time schedule off. (Hopkins: 007
)6 May (Wednesday) Delta Company departs LZ Oasis into Cambodia.1st Brigade units successfully entered Cambodia. The 2d Brigade was rescheduled to enter Cambodia with 48 helicopters. The order for their insertion was 2/35th, 1/22th and 1/12th. The order for 1/12th was Companies A, C, D and B. Co D was ordered to provide fire base security while the other companies rapidly moved out on search and destroy missions within the area of operations. (Hopkins Records:007)
7 May (Thursday): air assault operations had just been postponed about 1700 and units were moving back to the fire base. Suddenly, one single helicopter landed in front of the 1/12th commander and the pilot ran to talk to him. The pilot reported one helicopter carrying men in the 81mm Mortar Section of Co A crashed in the jungle at 1705 hours. After a quick conversation by several commanders, the Acting Commander, Co D was directed to identify one platoon to immediately load aircraft and secure the downed helicopter. Objecting to splitting his company in the middle of the invasion, the company commander reluctantly identified the 3d platoon. This 13-man platoon reached the helicopter just before dusk, secured the area (did not know what country they were in at the time), stayed on the ground for two days with no communications or any fire support from anyone, loaded out the dead and ultimately were extracted by air to the battalion FSB. (Hopkins: 007) Private First Class Richard Barber; Specialists Fourth Class Wayne Bebo and Arthur Kangas; and Sergeant John McCarthy of Alpha Company die in a helicopter crash (Arnold KIA records).
8 May (Friday) Co C moved out of FSB Invasion and found seven hooches with clothes, rice.(Hopkins: 007)
9 May (Saturday) Co C found fifteen large hooches and thirty bunkers, each with 2 ½ feet of overhead cover. Along with finding two tons of rice, some weapons and equipment, they also found five pounds of enemy documents. The complex was burned/destroyed. Later in the day, Co C found an enemy way station (resting point) with six more hootches. (Hopkins: 008)
10 May (Sunday) Co C spotted smoke coming from the jungle. They called in artillery and air support and later found a small hootch complex. (Hopkins: 008)
11 May (Monday): Specialist Fourth Class James Olson of Charlie Company is killed in enemy action (Arnold: KIA records). 1/12th relocated from FSB Invasion to establish FSB “Comanache.” Co A led the air movement. Co D continued providing fire base security. The 1/12th (-) was also placed under the operational control of 1st Brigade who were constantly finding numerous caches and making increasingly more contacts with enemy elements in their AO. Co C would remain in the original 2d Brigade area of operations attached to 1/22d Infantry battalion. While in the middle of moving fire bases, with half of the artillery battery moved and all their ammunition packed in boxes for sling loading, they received a fire mission for Co B. In approximately 30 minutes, using nearly all Co D troops, 150 artillery rounds were unboxed and successfully fired in support of the contact.. At 0815, Co C had an ambush team returning to their perimeter that came under fire by an estimated 5-10 NVA and two company soldiers were wounded during the contact. The enemy initially broke contact with the patrol. However, as the 1st Platoon immediately responded in support of the patrol it became pinned down by an unknown size enemy force. 3d Platoon responded in support and artillery was called in. The enemy again withdrew. A sweep found two NVA killed and several blood trails. Two Co C soldiers were killed during the sweep. Sp4 James R. Olson by a sniper in a spider hole and John A. Verno (medic) during a barrage of small arms fire. Following this contact, Co C continued to move down a trail network where they found four hooches with 500 pounds of rice, and another four other hooches with bunkers hit by B-52s and six NVA dead with rucksacks and other equipment. (Hopkins: 008& 009)
12 May (Wednesday): Sergeant Thomas Sherry and Specialists Troy Flint and Robert Thompson of Bravo Company are killed in enemy action (Arnold KIA records). Co C returned under control of 1/12th Infantry Battalion. On the afternoon of 12 May around 1620, Co B moved across an open area, stopped for a leaders’ meeting and then began separate platoon moves toward an eventual night defensive position (NDP). Within 30 minutes, 1st Squad, 1st Platoon walked into an enemy ambush of 5-7 NVA approximately 50-70 meters to their front. The squad’s point man, SP4 Robert Thompson’s immediate reaction saved the squad. However, he was instantly killed by the enemy fire. The rest of 1st Platoon responded to reinforce the squad. A short time later, the remainder of Co Be began to sweep the suspected enemy location. Although the enemy broke contact, they returned to within 40-50 meters and opened fire again wounding another Co B soldier (SP4 Troy L. Flint). The enemy effectively caught Co B in a cross fire of machineguns while also attempting to flank the company from three sides simultaneously. Twenty or more enemy with a third machinegun cut off the company CP group from 1st and 3d Platoons. During the height of the firefight, SP4 Keith Franklin (a medic) responded to aid SP4 Flint. Franklin was cut down by the deadly enemy fire and Flint also died. By 0150 hours, and in the dark Co B’s platoons continued to successfully regroup as one force in spite of the enemy’s counter moves. As 3d Platoon maneuvered against the enemy, SGT Thomas Sherry was also mortally wounded. Beginning at 1800, Co A began to move to reinforce Co B however as darkness arrived, they were directed to establish a perimeter within 300 meters of Co B and later told to return to their original position as the situation was stabilized and under control. (Hopkins: 009)
