Echoes of War: Vietnam Helicopter Tour Leg 7

Leg 7 — VVDN → VVPB Da Nang → Phu Bai (Huế)

Mission: Low-level flight over major battlefield region.

📖 Huế and the Turning Point

Huế was one of the most intense battle zones during the Tet Offensive (1968).

Urban combat. Prolonged fighting. Significant impact on both military strategy and public perception of the war.

From above, the city is calm again.

But its history remains one of the most defining moments of the conflict.

This is where the war shifted.

Not just on the ground—

but in how it was understood.
