    Was at Tent City, later known as Camp McDermott from Dec 65 to Dec 66 at the 569th Engineers (behind the 54th Signal). The strip to the right of the main gate was a favorite. Hung out at Lyly's Bar. Still owe Lyly $60.00. Compounded I may have a problem... The beach was awesome. Beach bars, especially #8, was great. Reach out to me if u were there then. Lotta stories! .....Al

    Does anyone remember the C123 that was on a Ranch Hand mission and got shot up and landed at Nha Trang. Would have been in 70 or 71, or the night a bunch of Hueys brought in civilian that the VC had shot up, that was a bad night... I was with the Transient Alert. Anyone remember Major Murphy? Coolest officer on the base.... Was back in country in 1972 for TDY (C130 mechanic). Flew into Kontum to strip down a 130 that got hit. Not a good place at all.

    I was stationed at Nha Trang air base- Aug. 1967 - April 1969, TDY to Phan Rang till August 1969 Airman first class- Sgt. in the Munitions Dump, loaded AC47 Spooky with flares and mini gun 7.62 ammunition.

    Anyone remember the battle ship New Jersey firing across the base and kicking ass/bombarding mountain behind Nha Trang.  Second thought- How could you ever forget?

    My father, Barry DeThomas, served in the 18th SOS from 1969 to 1971. He is unable to locate his DD214 and is trying to file a claim for Agent Orange exposure. His new copy of his DD214 shows no service in Vietnam even though he served 2 tours. If anyone might know him that can write a letter verifying his involvement please email me. Thanks

    There is an active Facebook page - 54th Signal Battalion. Lots of interaction there if you are looking for someone not found here.

    I was stationed at Camp McDermott with NTSAC from November 1967 to November 1968 in the S3 shop. From May to November 1968 I commanded the Nung CIDG force tasked with Camp McDermott gate and perimeter security. Some GIs did not appreciate our efficiency in enforcing the off-limits area at the south end of the road that ran past the POL tanks at the base of Hawk Hill.

    Thinking of making a visit and a motorcycle tour based at Nha Trang.
