Overview:
Thompson moved quickly to stabilize the front line and get his Marines moving forward. He withdrew the crippled company and replaced it with the one in reserve. With the help of two M48 tanks, the two Marine companies at the front advanced about three hundred meters before they were halted by heavy enemy fire coming from an archway tower at the Dong Ba Gate. The North Vietnamese had dug fighting positions in the massive stone portal that were impervious to anything less than a direct hit by artillery or tank fire. Major Thompson called off the attack until he could coordinate heavier supporting fire. On the morning of 14 February, an array of 155mm and 8-inch howitzers and 5- and 8-inch naval guns pounded the Dong Ba Gate. Despite the tremendous weight of ordnance that fell on the tower, the North Vietnamese refused to abandon it.Attacker: Allied (American (USMC) / ARVN) (1st Battalion, 5th Marines amd ARVN Marine Battle Group A)
