Guide to map of Vung Tau Army Airfield
and 73rd SAC Company Grounds

Here is an aerial view of the Vung Tau Army Airfield (VTAAF), Vung Tau, RVN, looking south. In the bottom right hand corner is the 73rd SAC Company grounds. I've included an index/guide for your convenience.

1 - Old hanger at main part of base (a place that I tried to stay out of)
2 - New hanger at north end of base (not bad... a nice breeze went through it in the evenings.
3 - 73rd SAC Flight Line (spent a LOT of time here!)
4 - Flight Line Shack (spent a little time here)
5 - 73rd SAC Intelligence Center
6 - 73rd SAC Company grounds
7 - Mess Hall
8 - run-up area
9 - Air Force Caribou's
10 - 73rd SAC Motor Pool
11 - CH-47 Chinook's - flight line
12 - Road to Saigon (never been down it)
?. - 73rd SAC Orderly Room (just to left) (been in there twice... when I checked into unit... and when I checked out of unit)
x - The little red x is what I think is my old hooch

The lower #6, was the hooch for the observers and directly across from it towards the mess hall was one of the NCO hoochs.

Other things - behind the orderly room., away from the mess hall was supply, right there on the corner. 2 up from that (towards the flight line) was the mail room.
