USS Okanogan from Long Beach, CA JUN66 to CHU LAI,
JUL66, via Hawaii for a few days. And of course the Typhoon
we ran intonear the Phillipines. After a short while, some of
us went to DaNang (some nice pictures on this site). Lived
at the Beachfront property for a while and then moved to
III MAF HQ to work in the message center. All in all I have
some fond memories of the time spent in VN. I have a few
pictures of the 5th Comm camp and local areas. I drove a jeep
and made a lot of courier runs when the lines were down. Not
all of them were fun. Approx. tour dates Left Long Beach at end
of May 66, arrived Chu Lai about one month later. Left from
DaNang about mid July 67.I heard the day after I left, the DaNang
AirStrip was hit pretty bad. Would be glad to hear from anyone
I served with or any others.
