The raw and gritty Hamburger Hill: 20th Anniversary Edition, featuring some never-before-seen footage, is out to own from June 2.
Hamburger Hill follows the heroic story of a squad in the 101st Airborne Division in their fight to take Dong Ap Bia, a 'mini' mountain in the A Shau Valley in Vietnam. The struggle began on May 10, 1969. Dong Ap Bia was marked on the maps as hill 937 (meters high). Ten days and eleven bloody assaults later, which resulted in 70 per cent casualties, it was given the nickname Hamburger Hill because it chewed up soldiers like chopped meat.
Soldiers are already fighting in the A Shau Valley, but the conflict is getting too hot and they withdraw to base camp. The soldiers dig trenches and prepare for battle. They mostly dream of girls and think of home. We follow the journey of young soldiers Washburn (Don Cheadle), Languille (Anthony Barrile), Murphy (Michael Dolan), Motown (Michael Boatman), Sgt. Franz (Dylan McDermott) and the rest of their squad as they fight for their country, their fellow soldiers and their lives in one of the bloodiest battles in American history.
