Fort Lee Soldiers Storm a Simulated Viet Cong Village

In the 1960s, the Officer's Candidate School and Basic Supply Course at Fort Lee, Virginia, trained and educated thousands of officers focusing specifically on support operations in Vietnam and Southeast Asia. In this photograph taken in 1968 during the Vietnam War (1961–1975), soldiers in training storm the main gate of a simulated Viet Cong Village named Dak Bo.
