Surveyed for topographical maps of the land, military facilities, landing strips, etc. We would go out in our 3/4 ton truck loaded with equipment and a huge, ice filled ,insulated water cooler. Because of all the stuff we dragged around we had .45 automatics instead of rifles. Felt like cowboys! Was in Saigon a half dozen times. To get to Binh Hoa you took a Lambro or Vespa into town. (or hitched a ride). After looking at your map and reading about what the area looks like now I don't have a desire to go back. Didn't see much that I found interesting to look at back then (although I took a lot of pictures) and it would seem even more foreign to me now. Looks like a lot of lives and money wasted. Gee .kind of like today! E mail if you would like more memories. I have a Sony reel to reel tape recorder I bought at the main PX and it still works just fine! Went to Sydney for R&R.

Great site - I have not had a chance to return to Long Binh, but I think it could be an interesting experience. I did not get off of the post very often, but I did stay at the Hotel Mai Lon or something like that twice. Our hootchs were just below the USARV Hqs helipad -used to go to the px snack bar - strawberry sundaes and the occasional hamburger.

While we were in SGN we went Long Binh but can't find anything resemble your HQ pictures. It is nothing but a large industrial park with many companies. Enjoyed to see pictures and read your page. PS - I worked in Long Binh from 1968 through 1972 and Joe was at Long Binh from 1970-1971. Thanks for taking time to keep up with this site.

Every now and then I will read an article that has the view that the war really had a purpose and that it slowed down the spread of communism. I do envy our troops coming back from the middle east who are treated as heros. While I was no hero, I did do my job and did it well. I guess the fact that I went to the University of Wisconsin in Madison for my MBA after I got home would have something to do with how I was treated.

I was stationed at Bien Hoa in 1964 and was in the US Air Force. In fact, I was there for the first mortar attack on an American base 1 Nov 64. I enjoyed the pics of Bien Hoa town but much has changed. The old theatre was similar to what I remembered. There was club on the base called the Jupiter Club and bus loads of gals would come up from Saigon each night. I became very good friends with a girl name Lethi Ming who was one of the girls and she lived on Phan Din Phoung (spelling?) in Saigon. She had a very young sister who came with her as well to the club. I visited her house many times and I am sure the man and young child there was Ming's husband and child but she always told me her husband had been a ARVN officer who had been kill

Comments:I spent Sep 67 to Sep 68 as the Radio Operator for the Security Operations Center Bunker which was on top of a hill about half way into the depot. The bunker was easily locatable because of the non-operations electric power lines built by the French which ran along the side of the large two door bunker which was about 12 feet tall. Strange the US Army never figured it out that those towers made it a sure and perfect line of sight to fire their rockets in on my bunker and hit the ammo pads which rocked our ass's much to often. Us radio operators did the coordination for the roving jeep patrols to escort the ammo truck convoys to the various pads to load ammo and at night we directed the mortar illiminations clearance from Ben Hoe Artillery call sign. The perimeter was 9 miles around and was breached on TET 68 by 200 VC from I believe the 247th Regiment or some number close to that.

Comments:As I had written you earlier, but letter unfinished due to space allowance, I loved the country. My first outpost was outside Ton Son Nhut where I was plugging a hole overrun by VC during Tet, this was August 68, chopper had to bring us in (searchlight crew and radar) and at night it was pitch black though I was outfront of 105mm arty and 4.2 mortars on a bunker line near what they called Korean Road. I envied the air force guys as some times I would drive our jeep into the air base and see air conditioned barracks and showers while we lived in ditches and bunkers loaded with ground water, flies and rats;it was too much so I stayed away,then I moved to Phu Cuong bridge where I stayed for 8-9 months till I extended for base camp outside Long Binh-5/2 Artillery (twin 40mm, quad 50 cal, searchlights) near the 199th light infantry. I was told we were near the outskirts of the ammo dump acting as a buffer. When I extended for base camp, I was assigned to Headquarters, lived in three different hooches as they moved me from job to job killing time,became a courier,built a small pool (dug a hole with bulldozer, lined it with rubber formerly used to land helocopters, got a pump for circulation, but due to it being on the outskirts, ie. perimeter road where the mobile 155's, dusters, vulcans drove, this "pool" loaded with dust and I was supposed to clean it), became sargent of guard, also in charge of hooch at rear of compound where rat killers and ladies who washed our clothes came in. Had three male and one female interpreter under me who would check the men and women coming on our base. Another duty they gave me was to haul water in tanker to an orphanage which was such a revelation. The Vietnamese nuns would grab me, take me to a room with cribs full of American/Vietnamese babies who looked like they were from Kansas, the nuns would say, "Please you take, look just like you, you take." It broke my heart, and I could foresee the hard times these kids would face after we left, and anything American would be hated.

If were not for Bill Lamonte ,I would still be wating and wondering if I had done something wrong . I am no loner in Pa. I came to Phoenix in 1977 to get a fresh start ,and see if the dry climate would help Frances Asthma ,it did not,and she and I were devorced in 1989 .She passed away 4 years ago from the complications of that condition . I raised my son from the age of 12 years by my self , so I know what sacrifice is all about . At the time of gulf war 1 ,after 6 months in the army ,he was dischaged as unfit for miitary service .Then I sufferd a parrent worst night mare ,He dropped out of sight and went missing for 8 years ,and in that time I suffered a TIA miny stroke from all the worry and stress he and my work as a hospital power plant mechanic put on me . I have recovered fully with the exception of damage to my immediate memory . I am married for 21 years to a school t

Click the HP link and the first two position are these pictures. Click on the thumbnail to open the album and there to enlarge the pictures.

I remember being at TSN when the ammo dump at Long Binh was hit in 1967; it was about 9pm and I thought maybe an F4 had gone down, loaded with munitions. I remember being amazed at the fireworks show! I loved Vietnam and the people. I didn't get to see much of the country while I was there. I wish I could return but probably will not have the chance to do so. Fortunately, I worked with many Vietnamese for several years before I retired from the printing profession.

Comments:Enjoyed looking your work over. I was stationed in Long Bien from April 1967 until January 1968. Got to see Bob Hope when he came over in December of 1967. I was with the 19th D.P.U., which at the time I was there, was on the south side of the base. I sure don't remember any swimming pool in the area, but do remember going out the front gate on tne north end and catching a Lumbretta and going in to Ben Hoa. Even spent a few over-nighters there. I've been trying to find whatever happened to my unit. We were situated right nest to the 56th D.P.U., but I'm sure at sometime or other we were both swallowed up by someone else. Our unit only had 94 men in it, and this included the 4 officers. Our highest ranking officer was a Major. Our work was all classified, and we worked with computers, and they had to be cooled, so we worked out of air conditioned trailers. I think, if memory serves me right, that we had 6 interlocked trailers, but it could have been 8. We went 24 hours a day

Comments:Hi - When I don't have anything to do here at my part time job I look up Long Binh. Was there from June 1967 - May 1968 at the 160th HHD Signal Group. Don't remember the brigade number and I can't figure out where we were exactly on base. Anyway, I went back in 1985 when it was "illegal" to go to VN. Passed by Long Binh then and it was just a barren field with the General Hq buildings in the background. I went back again in 2005 and the place was all built up. Had no idea where anything was. Went to Bien Hoa and the only structure I recalled was the watertown. It was very surreal to me. Actually, kind of sad to think how long along I had been there. Had a fantastic trip though. Spent 7 weeks in Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos. Sailed the Mekong river for eight days, spent time in Phnom Penh, travelled by pickup truck to Laos, flew to Hanoi, took the train to Hue and then had a guide and driver as we crisscossed our way back to Saigon. Was going to go back again this winter and "l

Comments:I was with 534th transportation in 1971. Prior to that they were in Long Binh. I was sent down to the delta because I had that m.o.s. Prior to that I was in Long binh with another unit. While out on guard duty things got ugly. We recieved sniper fire and could not shoot back. I caught hell from this captain for setting off a white phosphorous flair. This went on for almost 2 hours. The 70s were different. I was sent to Bin tui in the delta to serve out my time with 534th. Have you ever heard of soc trang? That was a memory I will never forget. I like your stuff Henry.

I am accidently stumbling in to your web site a couple of days ago , interestingly I've been looking for the street named Adran for some personel reasons and thank you for your photo postcard I found where it is and what is look like now. For your information Adran now is HO TUNG MAU , that the street starting where Mac Thi Buoi ending , Ho Tung Mau is the street leading from behind Tong Nha Ngan Kho or Kho bac Nha nuoc on Nguyen Hue to the waterfront on Quai de Belgique or Ben Chuong Duong where the Cau Mong to Khanh Hoi is ,you will passed the Old US Embassy on Ham Nghi on the way to the waterfront by this route . Your Adran photo postcard was taken somewheres near old US Embassy on Ham Nghi to Adran street,the building you see on the old postcard is now NHU LAN building , famous for French sandwitches and ask to why this street named was Adran the only explanation is the wooden church ,the first one in Saigon was here before its moved to its present location Sa

We left in 1967 just before Tet. My father worked for RMK, a construction firm you probably recognize. We lived in Vietnam when no one back home had ever heard of it. lol I'd like to go back and take my kids who are in their 30's. I have friends there in Saigon that I have known for 40 years. They will help me find a place to stay. I'm a teacher who subs for our local schools systems. I have thought about teaching in VN but might be too old! lol Still, your pictures make me "homesick." We lived in Gia Dinh in Saigon the last time. Would love to see if our home is still there. I'm sure I won't be able to recognize a lot. Just your pictures of the market in Saigon looks so small. Anyway, nice to meet you and let me know if you're going back. :) Deborah

Comments: I have always wanted to go back, even when I was there, I knew I should return. I loved the people and understood why they wanted us out and why at various times someone tried to kill me. I go along with the kids,and especially the families of Vietnames soldiers on the bridge separating phu loi and Cu Chi known as the Phu Cuong Bridge. A book was written about our experience there called Where the Rivers Run Backwards by William E. Merritt about life from Ft. Leonard Wood to the explosion which killed and wounded a few of us, I had 18 months to go to get the early out as I had enlisted for three years in the Artillery and eventually went to 5/2 Arty (automatic weapons self propelled, AKA, Quads, Dusters, Searchlights). Our main base was at one end of Long Binh, and for part of my tour I was a courier and would travel to Long Binh to pick up top secret radio traffic and other intelligence. It would take about an hour one way. When I returned from 2nd Field Force w/ the messages for HQ, 5/2 Arty, we would travel toward a village possibly known as Tam Hiep, but can't remember too well, and then get off at a dirt road, plain ol' flour like dust for a couple of miles, then turn toward base camp and along a railroad track for a while, I think, past 197th light infantry, possibly, finally to the outskirts of a huge ammo dump, I believe, which we guarded w/dusters, quads, vulcans, searchlights. I would guard the gate (my second year) at the rear of the compound facing the village the name of which I cannot remember and through which the ratkillers, barbers, washing women and girls, tranlators would go and I was in charge of keeping an eye on things as guys would try to climb the wire to get to the village for a good time. One even shot himself when I wouldn't let him climb over the wire by leaning on his m-16 and push/pull the trigger, never found out what happened to him, at least what I can remember of the incident, and it's like he didn't even exist, but I knew him pretty well which is why he tried to get by me.

Had driven thru the Citadel Gates bringing troopers in from the Air field next to the ARVN Army Comound. Thought it was strange that the white mice aka..... Vietnam Police were not present on the bridge as usual. Again, many thanks for what you have done. I'm sure many guys appreciate your efforts....Chuck

I can understand that many of you do not have pleasant memories of Viet Nam and it is quite understandable. But there are many people out there who lived in Viet Nam as military, diplomatic, missionary and business dependents who lived, went to school there and loved it and I am one of them. My dad was stationed in Saigon, Sgt Maj. Of MAAG (1960 or thereabouts) and my mother, sister and I joined him.

Comments:I went to Long Bien in Nov 1965 and stayed until Aug 1966. My unit was the 557th engineer company. We were one of the first units into Long Bien. We built the 93rd Evac Hospital and started to carve the ammo dump out of what was then just jungle. I can't believe looking at your satilite photo the change in LB from the time I was there. Thanks for bringing me this.
