9) This was the Cantonment Entry Gate. I cannot remember
names of the Airmen. I hope some one will recognize them.
10) Facing west from entrance to cantonment area at Binn Thu.
11) Cantonment area at Binh Thuy. 632nd SPS hootches are on the
left. Note
SP cross-pistols emblem on the fence. For those that don't know,
the
fence-like barriers built up around the hootches were filled with
sand
bags. This was for protection during rocket and motar attacks.
(What's the guy doing---flying a kite ... or carrying an umbrella?)
12) Another view of the cantonment area (facing south). The name
of the SSgt. escapes
me for now. The mascot dogs in the foreground were Connie (standing)
and Joe(?).
13) SP Cantonment area again, from second floor of the barracks
on south end
of the area (facing east). Barely visable in the background is the
Mekong River.
14 Inside the chow hall at Binh Thuy .
15) U.S. and RVN flags fly together at Binh Thuy AB! CSC was located
in back
of the two buidlings and near the base of the tower. The tower was
manned at
night---only by SP's, of course.
16) A1C Pfaff in area by the hootches. Hidden from view and to the
right
is the location of the memorial built to those AP and SP's that
had fallen
in the line of duty at Binh Thuy AB.
17) Binh Thuy USAF Post Office.
18) A1C George Albert (from Iowa) acting silly as usual.
19) A1C Albert and A1C Pherigo at entry gate to cantonment area.
