The total loss of comms aside, the "isolated US base getting overrun" is the nightmare scenario which we haven't (so far) seen in our current of adventures in the Middle East.

When I was a kid, for a gift I got the time life series on Vietnam, like 20 plus books with pictures. One little sidebar in it was a snippet from the radio transcripts when a post called Lang Vei got overrun (with enemy tanks no less). I couldn't get it out of my head. The last transmission before they booked it was "we are moving off the hill..." A lot said in a few words!
