A mysterious island with thousands of missing soldiers, a continuous message from hell for help, a dusty archive listed in the "top military secrets". During the Vietnam War, in a mysterious place called "R Heights", real supernatural events took place, and even alarmed the then President of South Korea, Park Chung-hee. So what really happened at the time? Why did the South Korean president send his most elite troops to investigate the matter and put it highly classified? Welcome to like the comment collection.
"R Heights"
Six months of distress
In 1972, when the Vietnam War was at its most critical, South Korea, as an ally of the United States, also sent more than 300,000 soldiers to assist the United States in fighting in Vietnam. However, The Wild Donkey No. 3 Squad mysteriously disappeared during a battle. The missing sites are a small island called "R Heights", also known as "Romeo Point". But behind such a romantic-sounding name is a creepy fact that science cannot explain.
Generally speaking, it is normal to disappear on the battlefield, and the Headquarters of the South Korean Army at that time has been receiving distress signals from members of the squad for 6 months since the disappearance of the Wild Donkey No. 3 squad. However, the headquarters was hesitant to send troops to rescue them. Because Donkey 3 squad is not all missing, but there is one survivor. Survivors insist they have seen all their comrades die. Who is this person who sent the distress signal?
Distress signals
However, after the distress signal lasted for 6 months, the Rokkasaw Korean military headquarters decided to send a 9-person squad to "R Heights" to investigate, which was called the "Vole Squad". Before setting off, the soldiers did not seem to realize what would happen to the operation, and gleefully took a group photo together.
Finally, in the early morning of the second day, the vole squad arrived at the stronghold of "R Heights", where an abandoned building stood, and the leader of the Jade Squad decided to use this as a temporary resting base for them. If missing soldiers are found, they can also be brought back to rest again.

It seemed like a normal search and rescue operation, but the whole thing was getting stranger and stranger. On day 2, when the 9-man squad was on a search mission in a sub-area, a soldier saw a strange squad. Judging from the attire, this squad was indeed a Korean army, but everyone had their backs to him, and they could not find the front of these people in any way. Then he fainted, and before he fainted, the soldier saw the man closest to him with the words on his helmet, "Jeong-sook, wait for me." ”
The South Korean soldier was horrified by this strange situation. On day 1, nothing was found, and in the evening when the vole squad returned to the stronghold to rest, an American squad suddenly appeared in the villa. According to the U.S. military itself, they would come here every once in a while to replenish supplies, because they also used it as a stronghold in case of war. However, these American soldiers, who usually had no interest in alcohol, war, and women, reminded them that it was very strange here.
Group photo before departure
Strange troops, unusualLy American soldiers, made everyone in the vole squad nervous. Everyone wants to hurry back to headquarters, but time never waits for anyone, and from the moment they step into this strange "R Heights", they are doomed to not be safe.
The killing begins
After a day of chaos, the soldiers of the vole squad felt nervous, and when they got up on the morning of the second day to count the number of people, the team found that one of the soldiers was missing. They had come to look for the missing soldiers, but the missing one had not yet been found, and one of them was missing, which was obviously a very ominous sign. However, when they looked around for the missing soldier, they found that he had been hanged from the roof of the building.
Group photo of 9 people
The captain of the vole squad had no choice but to report to the headquarters, but in the call with the headquarters, they found a strange thing, before the departure of the group photo they took on the top of 8 people, plus the photo, should be 9 people; but in the second group photo after their collection, there were 9 people, so who is holding the camera for them?
Before the South Korean soldiers could figure it out, the second soldier had an accident. The soldier's death was very tragic, and he had been shouting "sorry sorry sorry" before dying, and on the brim of his hat, Han Jun found something very familiar, a bracelet. This bracelet is the bracelet of a Vietnamese woman they met before they entered the "R Heights" stronghold.

The direction of the incident became more and more strange and strange, and the vole squad also thought that the place could not stay any longer, and decided to immediately search for the other missing soldiers in two ways, while waiting for the rescue of the American soldiers they encountered last time. To their despair, however, one of the squads found the remains of the soldiers of Donkey No. 3, who had apparently been dead for a long time; the other squad found that the bodies of the American soldiers they had seen had also been highly corrupted.
In other words, the American soldiers who send distress signals and help them are not real people. The psychology of each member of the vole squad had reached the point of collapse, but it was getting late at night, and they had to retreat to their original building stronghold and decided to take charge of the headquarters on day 2. That same night, however, fierce clashes broke out between the vole squads, and some soldiers could not even report their names and ranks, which led to a fierce gun battle.
War
When all was settled, everyone was dead, leaving only a young recruit who had just joined the army and had been blind in the previous battle. What is even more bizarre is that when the rescue force at the headquarters arrived on day 2, all the people disappeared, leaving only the only surviving soldier.
The terrible thing is that just when this surviving little recruit was treating his wounds in the hospital bed, the radio of the Rok military headquarters received a familiar call for help, but this time, it was not the Wild Donkey No. 3 Squad that sent the call for help, but the Vole Squad.
9 people turned into 10 people, the dead people actually sent out a call for help, and the never-ending cycle of rescue can be called a supernatural event. So, how likely is it that this thing is real? Can such a terrible thing really happen in war?

The real "R Heights"
In fact, in the process of the vole squad reaching the "R Heights", it has encountered some strange phenomena that are difficult to explain with science. For example, they were sniped by the Vietnamese army shortly after they set out, and the fire of the other side was very fierce. However, when the 9 of them knocked out the enemy's fire point and killed the enemy, they found that there were only two people who attacked them, and one of them still looked dead for several years, and the remaining Vietnamese women were also dying.
Before the vole squad entered the "R Heights" stronghold, a stone tablet was seen in front of the "R Highlands" stronghold, on which were engraved 6 words, "Those who have blood on their hands do not return." "However, all the South Korean soldiers did not care, and some even deliberately stepped on this stone monument.

So did the historical "R Heights" really exist? Is it really that scary? In fact, "R Heights" does exist. During the Vietnam War, the "R Heights" was even a very famous stronghold, because of its geographical importance, so the U.S. army and the Vietnamese army used to constantly compete with each other.
In recent history, Vietnam has experienced many wars, the first time was to fight the French army and get rid of the French colonial rule, when a 12-man French army squad disappeared near the "R Heights".
During the vietnam war waged by the United States, a total of 650 French and American soldiers died here. When South Korea assisted the United States in combat, it also took out the two sharpest units, the "Tiger" division and the "White Tiger" division, but near the "R Heights", there were usually several missing soldiers, and later even the entire company was missing.
Vietnamese Army
Each time, these missing people will send a distress signal to the headquarters, hoping that the ROK headquarters will send troops to support, but soon after each search and rescue team is dispatched, they will disappear and repeatedly send a message to the ROK headquarters. South Korean President Park Chung-hee paid special attention to the incident and sent elite troops to investigate, and also listed it as South Korea's "top military secret." Imagine, if this is nonsense, why should a national government compete with a supernatural story that catches the wind and shadows?
In addition, on the battlefield of the Vietnam War, there have been some strange events, such as when the Vietnamese army is fighting with the U.S. army, it often hears someone talking in the wind, talking to two Vietnamese, it seems to be a father and daughter, talking upside down, but the content can be heard full of despair, and every time this sound appears around the Vietnamese Soul Day festival, it has caused many Vietnamese soldiers to collapse on the spot.

However, in the archives of the US military later, this matter was revealed. It turned out that this was a method of crushing the Vietnamese proposed by American folklorists at that time, and they collected this strange sound everywhere, accompanied by leaflet propaganda, in an attempt to break the psychological defense line of the Vietnamese soldiers, prompting them to flee the position and unable to fight. So do you think that the "R Heights" incident is real or fake? Welcome to like and criticize the collection.
