Vietnam Journal
VIETNAM JOURNAL RETURNS July 1970. Scott 'Journal' Neithammer has been reporting first-hand on President Nixon's military incursion into Cambodia to root out the North Vietnamese Army's, until then, untouchable sanctuaries. However, this all comes to an abrupt end when he is kidnapped by over-zealous Military Police and returned to South Vietnam to face the Provost Marshall's wrath. The incident sparks Neithammer's unexpected journey back into the dreaded A Shau Valley where the 101st Airborne Division, once again, attempts to bloody the noses of the NVA. Just one year earlier, their Brothers had fought a prolonged and divisive battle in the A Shau Valley on Hill 937, Dong Ap Bia Mountain-aka Hamburger Hill. This brings us to the siege of Fire Support Base RIPCORD. This is a story of over-confidence, arrogance, and revenge on the part of Military Assistance Command Vietnam in Saigon, coupled with an under-strength U.S. force sent to face an enemy who outnumbers them ten to one.

Vietnam Journal - Hamburger Hill
From the award-winning writer and artist of the Vietnam Journal comic book series. The Battle of Hamburger Hill took place May 13-20, 1969 and was fought by U.S. Army and Army of the Republic of Vietnam (ARVN) forces against the People's Army of Vietnam (PAVN) of North Vietnam during Operation Apache Snow. Heavily-fortified with trenches and bunkers Hill 937, nicknamed Hamburger Hill, was a ridge on the mountain Dong Ap Bia in central Vietnam near the western border with Laos. The hill had little strategic value but U.S. command ordered its capture by a frontal assault. Upon capture by U.S. forces the hill was soon abandoned thereafter, falling back into North Vietnam hands. The action caused a controversy both within the American military and back home with the public. After 'Vietnam Journal' concluded its initial comic book run the series continued as a featured one-page monthly serial in Gallery Magazine. The serial depicted the events of Hamburger Hill.
