Sledgehammer Mission Support Site

Sledgehammer Mission Support Site (also known as Sledgehammer MSS, Cu Grok, Hill 1438 or Heavy Drop) was a MACV-SOG base located west of Pleiku, in Kontum Province.

The base was located on a steep and narrow ridgeline overlooking the Plei Trap Valley, approximately 46 km west of Pleiku and 20 km east of the Cambodian border.
