For most of the first year following the buildup of American troops in Vietnam, the war was relatively cost-free. It was, to the military, a chance to try out new weapons and tactics. It provided a means for career officers to get their "ticket punched."
However, in early 1966, main-force North Vietnamese entered the war. It was with this battle, the tides began to turn. The United States began to realize that the undeclared war was about to become an ordeal.
With this photograph we start a series about this battle by Henri Huet.

HENRI HUET - An Thi, Vietnam, 1966
In January 1966, Associated Press correspondent Bob Poos and photographer Henri Huet accompanied the U.S. First Cavalry Division into action on the central coast of South Vietnam. This is an extract from their account. (AP)
An Thi, Vietnam, January 30 (AP) - A drenching rain fell throughout Friday night and in the predawn hours of Saturday, then slacked off about dawn.
The light of dawn exposed a picture of bloody battle-the dead and wounded in the muddied trench, the empty cartridge clips and ration boxes scattered about, the shell holes. In the village a rooster crowed, and the hens pecked in the mud. A pig rooted through empty C-ration cans.
It was a dawn that did not come peacefully.

LIFE Magazine ran Henri''''s pictures as a twelve page spread. I honestly feel that it is the most perfect coverage I have ever seen.
