Overview:

By early May, the end was near at Dien Bien Phu. The fighting, however, was no less intense. This was certainly true of the battle for the mud-encrusted stretch of land called Strongpoint 'Wieme'. Early in the morning of May 2nd, the 57 Regiment of the 304th Division attacked the French positions and gained a significant foothold in the northeastern portion of the position. The French re-grouped and counter-attacked fiercely, with the Legionnaires of the 3/3 REI, Algerians of the 2/1 RTA, and two tanks in support.
Attacker: French (3/3 REI, 2/1 RTA and tanks Auerstaedt and Neumach)
Defender: PAVN (Regiment 57, 304th Infantry Division PAVN)
