AS-1.JPGAir Drop of supplies121 viewsEveryone knew the drill. A CH-47 Chinook had a slingload of something under its belly and dropped off the load. There were few useful roadways in Nam that weren't subject to daily ambush.

AS-3.JPGField Entertainment119 viewsWell, the troops seem to be enjoying it!

AS-10.JPGScenic Firebase112 viewsThis is one of the more scenic firebases you'll ever see in Nam
