It was an airborne raid on Viet Minh supply depots near Lạng Sơn, involving parachute units of the French Army and Vietnamese National Army.[2] Raids near the junction of Route Coloniale 4 and Route Coloniale 1 revealed supply caches hidden in caves, which were photographed and destroyed.[1] The attack forces then retreated over land through Loc Binh, where other French units had been dropped on July 17 to repair and hold a river crossing for the retreating units; and then to form a rearguard for 20 miles.[2] The entire force rendezvoused with Groupe Mobile Five,[1] and was then extracted by sea on July 19, suffering from heat exhaustion. The average weight loss was 11 pounds.[2] Notes1. ^1 2 Windrow, p. 215. 2. ^1 2 Windrow, p. 195. ReferencesOnline
