The Battle of Dai Do (also known as the Battle of Đông Hà)
took place from 30 April to 3 May 1968 in Quảng Trị Province during the Vietnam War.


The Cửa Việt River served as a vital supply line for the 3rd Marine Division
in northern Quảng Trị Province, running from the Cửa Việt Base to the
Đông Hà Combat Base which in turn supported the Marine bases along the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ).

The Cửa Việt area was part of the Napoleon/Saline operational area
with the 1st Amphibian Tractor Battalion responsible for securing the
Cửa Việt Base and its vicinity.
The 1st AMTRAC Battalion had operational control of a rotation of Marine infantry battalions.


After several attacks, People's Army of Vietnam (PAVN) have killed a couple of sailors at American docs.

Army of the Republic of Vietnam (ARVN) has successfuly captured couple of villages in Area of Operation
under command of USMC commanders,
making that way a possibility for 3rd Marine Division (USMC) to start Operation Red Angel, as an answer to previouse attacks.
