Thank you Dixie. They are about 42 years old, very faded and scanned on an average printer.

Under the circumstances they turned out really well, and I had no trouble at all seeing the details.

Would you be willing to tell us what you were doing when you took the photos?

I was with the 720th MP Battalion Company B. We provided security outside Long Binh Post. Mainly, set up ambush positions. We were in 12 men squads and were out for only 6 days. Sounds worse than it was. Saw very little action. This was in 1970 after the 1968 TET conflict. Things were different for us anyway after TET.
