Comments:Hi
I was in Camp Haskins/North at Red Beach from July 15, 1968 to March 1968 with MCB 22. I was on detachment up in Vin Dia on the Z inland from Dong Ha about 25 miles from Nov 68 to March 69, when I flew back to Da Nang,Camp Haskins for flight to the world and round eyes. I was an EO1 at this time. Spent a total of 37 years in the Bees, with a total of 5/6 years on active duty. I served w/ MCB 4, COMCBLANT/Davisville, RMCB 22, MCB 22, RMCB 16, PHIBCB 1, PWCGUAM, and 31st NCR/Port Hueneme. I am now retired from both Seabees and civilian work. It looks like I was at Red Beach at the same time you were there. Your picture from that time looks familiar.
I live in Northern California about half way between Sacramento and Lake Tahoe. About one hour by car to Tahoe, in fact my wife and I ski a lot only abour 45 min. from home at an area overlooking Tahoe. This is Gods Country. I have been in all but 5 of the 50 states and this is one of the most beautiful areas.
If you have time to write please do.

I work in the dental clinic at CBC Port Hueneme and want to display some of my fathers photos from construction jobs that he worked on while in Vietnam. The only trouble is he passed away and I can't name the different job sites. I think many of them were in Danang at Camp Hoover.
If there is anyone out there that might be able to help me identify some of the locations, I would be very grateful. I have a scanner and could can them to you.
Thank you for your reply and your participation in the Vietman War.

My father is a veteran of the US Marine Corps Recon. Until recently, I never even heard him talk about the war. Now to hear him tell these stories, I feel tears stinging my eyes. I respect every soldier who risked his life, or gave his life for his country in Vietnam. Thank you soldiers for your bravery, and God bless.
