(subtle groovy music) - [Narrator] 1967, in the heart of Vietnam's Mekong Delta, a tangled maze of waterways and jungle, the US needed a new kind of warrior, one who could fight in two worlds, land and water.
A war fought in the shadows, where the rivers ran dark, and the enemy moved unseen.
They called them The Mobile Riverine Force.
50 years later, this is their story.
