The view of Haiphong Airfield from the back of a White Knight CH46 during the "talks" near the end of the United States "involvement" in Viet Nam. Cameras were not supposed to be allowed, but in true "Marine Tradition", one just happened to accompany this crew.

This view of the "Line Shack" is in somewhat of a contrast of the ones known to the squadron during  prior years in Viet Nam. It looks as if the lights are bright enough to read with, not to mention just a little cooler, in many ways.

Here in the pilots "Ready Room" the amenities of  life "aboard ship" is reflected with the same contrast as the line shack of the bygone years.
