Description
(Original Caption) Khe Sanh a Pilot's Nightmare. Khe Sanh, South Vietnam: Marines duck as a helicopter runs the gauntlet of enemy fire to land at Khe Sanh. Communist gunners open up every time a plane approaches Khe Sanh and the base itself is being constantly bombarded. A U.S. transport was shot down March 6th, killing all 49 men aboard. It was the third large transport lost to enemy fire, which also has claimed more than a half dozen helicopters.
