The Battle of Duc Co or the Battle of Landing Zone 27V was an engagement between the People's Army of Vietnam(PAVN) 5th Battalion of the 88th Regiment alongside the 69th Armor Regiment and 3rd Brigade, 25th Infantry Division with a company of the Republic of Korea Army 3rd Battalion, 1st Cavalry Regiment of the Capital Division, supported by a tank platoon of the 1st Battalion,69th Armor during the night of August 9-10, 1966. The battle resulted from North Vietnamese attempts to infiltrate Duc Co from Cambodia. The battle was regarded as a "victory for American firepower", given the massive deployment of artillery, armoured and aerial firepower against a potential NVA attack against a defensive perimeter.
