The Battle of FSB Mary Ann occurred when Viet Cong (VC) sappers attacked the U.S. firebase located in Quảng Tín Province, South Vietnam early on the morning of 28 March 1971. Fire support base (FSB) Mary Ann was located to interdict movement of enemy troops and materiel down the K-7 Corridor and Dak Rose Trail (branches of the Ho Chi Minh trail running from Laos to the coast of South Vietnam). Originally intended to be a temporary base, it evolved into a more permanent location garrisoned by at least one U.S. Army company. The base was manned by 231 American soldiers at the time of the attack.

  • Bei der Schlacht um FSB Mary Ann handelte es sich um den Angriff einer Kompanie der Nordvietnamesischen Nationalarmee auf eine Feuerunterstützungsbasis (Fire Support Base, FSB) der 23. US-Infanteriedivision während des Vietnamkrieges. Im Zuge des schrittweisen Rückzugs der amerikanischen Streitkräfte aus Vietnam sollte auch FSB Mary Ann an die südvietnamesische Armee (ARVN) übergeben werden. Daher war ein Teil der Ausrüstung bereits verlagert worden und das Bataillon nicht mehr bei voller Mannschaftsstärke. Aufgrund der jahrelangen Abwesenheit von gegnerischen Angriffen waren die Verteidigungsanlagen unzureichend und die Besatzung unachtsam geworden. In den frühen Morgenstunden des 28. März 1971 kam es plötzlich zu einem überraschenden Angriff von nordvietnamesischen Sturmpionieren. Innerh (de)
  • Бой на базе Мэри-Энн произошёл, когда сапёры Национального фронта освобождения Южного Вьетнама атаковали американскую базу в провинции Куангтин (Южный Вьетнам) рано утром 28 марта 1971 года. Мэри-Энн была расположена так, чтобы помешать перемещению вражеских войск и техники по коридору К-7 и тропе Дак Роуз (ответвления тропы Хо Ши Мина). Предполагалось, что база будет временной. Однако, она продолжила существовать на постоянной основе, на базе размещалась по крайней мере одна рота армии США. На момент нападения на базе находился 231 американский солдат. (ru)
