CAP
Submitted by: Tim "CAPVet" Duffie |
While on radio watch in Phu Bai, mid-summer of 67, I monitored a CAP unit south of Phu Bai that engaged an ambush one night. The next morning, while running supply, we saw this body cart. I think it was Loc Bon, or one of the first villages south of Phu Bai. Does anyone recognize this Marine? |
Another shot of the body cart.... with, perhaps, more detail of the village. |
Loc Bon? I've never been sure, but I think this was Loc Bon. The temple in the background, and in the next pix, was the only "landmark" I recognized in my trip from Da Nang to Phuoc My (Papa 2) in 1996. It was totally destroyed at that time. |
More of the temple in Loc Bon.....class is letting out. |
I have no idea where this pix was taken. It also may be backwards. Perhaps it is a view from the north side of the bridge in Loc Bon. Can anyone ID it? |

Unknown Village south of Phu Bai. |
I believe this pix was taken at the same ville as the pix to the left. This PF saw me taking pictures, and he asked if I would take one of him. |
This is the same ville, looking away from the water and up into the village. I believe the CAP Unit was just beyond the tree, near the crest of the hill. |
