Sunday 14 November, 1965 at 10.48am. Lt. Col. Hal Moore (Mel Gibson) and his regiment of 400 men touch down at Landing Zone X-Ray in the Ia Drang Valley, a place in Vietnam known as "The Valley of Death". They find themselves surrounded by over 2,000 North Vietnamese soldiers and the ensuing battle becomes one of the most savage in US history. Heroism, bravery, sacrifice, the butchery of battle - We Were Soldiers is a gruelling exploration of war with all its horrors.
