Operation Camargue involved 30 French battalions sweeping “The Street Without Joy”, Road Number 1 between Quang-Tri and Hue, in order to clean out the 95th Vietminh Regiment which had been ambushing French supply convoys for years. The target area stretched 20 miles, but was never wider than 300 yards! After traversing four miles, Groupment B composed of the 6th Moroccan Spahis, 1st Battalion Moroccan Rifles, and the 69th African Artillery Regiment came upon the hamlet of Doug-Que.
Attacker: French (6th Moroccan Spahis and 1st Battalion Moroccan Rifles)
