...testimony from the battlefield was that the Communists still preferred shooting to talking. During the last weekly reporting period in late August, U.S. battle deaths totaled 190-somewhat fewer than the 244 killed during the week of the last "high point" earlier in the month. Enemy losses were put at 2,757. Last week U.S. Marines and infantrymen engaged in a number of sharp fire fights, most notably in the rolling hills near Danang and north of Saigon...

By late May, they had lost five more games than they had won. Then, suddenly, they caught fire. They won eleven in a row, the longest winning streak in their history.
