1. Is the guy on top there alive?

2. Faintly reminds me of the city battle scenes in *Full Metal Jacket*.

3. Hue: 1968 by Mark Bowden provides a ton of insight into this battle. It’s full of first-person accounts from both sides.

4. Man, seeing all the videos in ukraine where friendly tank drive over the own guys, this picture makes me really anxious

5. These men fought for Hue and yet this picture is in black and white 🤔

6. Added to the long-and-growing list of ‘tactics that once offered some safety but now make for a much juicier FPV target’

7. I hate HUE. There ain’t one horse in HUE

8. A couple of them look very young
