Phan Rang Air Base,
Republic of Viet Nam

Phan Rang was located 3 miles inland from the South China Sea and  35 miles south of Cam Ranh Bay. The base took over a year to complete . It's runway was suitable for Australian Canberra bombers. 

Over it's lifetime, Various Security Police units were assigned to Phan Rang. Usually when these changes occurred, all personnel remained, just the unit name (or number) was changed. Sometimes special units were assigned to provide special capabilities. It's a military thing!  Phan Rang was the home of the  35th,  315th, 366th, 821st, 822nd, and 823rd.
