Loc Ninh-1, Special forces and Montagnard basecamp

Loc Ninh was not in our Area of Operations. However, my cousin Gary Muffley (Airforce Captain) flew a two engine carribou (looks like a small C130) for the Air Force. I was granted a 3 day in-country R&R and stayed with him in Vung Tau. Every day I flew with him to some of the bases he serviced. This was a small special forces camp near Loc Ninh. The entire base consisted of 13 US special forces and 3-400 native troops from the area (Montagnard tribesman). The entire base was ringed by berms with trenches, and was regularly probed by the NVA.
