A Troop - Lift Section - 1969-70


Sept 1969 A Troop moved from Camp Enari (Pleiku) to the Golf Course (An Khe) to escape the western monsoon's bad flying weather. The monsoon stopped at the Mang Yang Pass. The French cemetery (not shown) in the Pass contained 150 Frenchmen ambushed by the Vietminh. They were buried standing up, facing France, I'm told. (David Sims Photo)
