Two Huey slicks of the 192nd AHC

The photo depicts a flight of Second Flight Platoon slicks over Phan Thiet Airfield carrying an element of the 3/506 that had been extracted from the field in March 1969. ( Note the legs of a "grunt" dangling out the door just above one skid of the slick in the foreground.) There's a good view of the 192nd AHC area below (still "tent city") and a hazy silhouette of Buddha Mountain on the horizon to the west. The surrounding terrain is lacking any sign of greenery since we were in the middle of the dry season (which seemed to be the case more often than not!)
