Fight or Die is a television show produced for the Discovery Channel.
The first episode, Valley of Death, tells the real-life story of a group of American soldiers whose lives were made famous in Randall Wallace's motion picture We Were Soldiers starring Mel Gibson. On November 14, 1965 in the Ia Drang Valley of Vietnam, in a small clearing called Landing Zone X-Ray, 2,000 enemy soldiers surrounded 400 United States Army troopers. The ensuing battle was one of the most savage in U.S. history. Fight or Die is a tribute to the nobility of those men under fire, their common acts of uncommon valor, and their loyalty to and love for one another.
