This is one of the few I have...taken at the mouth of the Cua Viet River in early 1967. This Marine base was later named Camp Kistler. As you know, I still wear that watch occasionally. It's never been serviced - ha ha.
Below is one of at least three youtube videos of my battalion (3/4) at this base.

What? You had tents to sleep in and sandbags for protection...you probably had a mess hall and hot chow, too!!!
I remember switching from hot chow to C-rats and back again many times. Do you remember what that did to your digestive system? I'm still trying to forget! ;)
