Airbase near Saigon where we picked up the 2-2 replacement track after we hit a mine

The first 2-2 track i was on was DX'd after hitting a mine outside of Dau Tieng in late November 1968. The driver and I went to the main resupply depot (probably Tan Son Nhut) to pick up this "virgin" track. Notice the abondoned bunker. As the airbase expanded, old bunkers were apparently left in place and new ones placed in the perimeter. The good thing about getting a new track: It came with two new M60's with spare barrels and a new 50 Cal with a spare barrel. So we kept the old 50cal and ground mounted it on a bunker in any fire base we were at.
