At 1723 hours, an APC from Company B, which was escorting a convoy on Highway 239 through the Ben Cui Rubber Plantation, was hit by an RPG round. Two Bobcats were killed instantly. While attempting to get the driver out of the damaged APC, another Bobcat from Company B was shot and killed. He had run over to the track that got hit, jumped on top and grabbed a hold of the driver, who had been wounded and was attempting to pull him out. A shot rang out and he fell off the track, into the ditch and died before anyone got to him. The bullet had hit him in the side.
