Aussie Phan Rang 1970-71

From Ken Marks, on Tue, 22 Jul 1997 12:08:50 GMT (in response to: Phan Rang Air Base)

Yes, Iwas stationed at Phan Rang with 2 sqaudron Canberra Bombers and became mates with two americans Harry and Jim. Harry came over to Australia on R&R to visit me and my family. I was also at Das Lat and Cam Ran Bay for a while , but mostly at Phan Rang. I designed and built an AM radio station there and our unit operated this facility in addition to other activities. I remember the beach the barb wire and the rocket and mortat attacks. Idid quite a few unarmed test flights over that military region and also bombing missions. We must have had enough bombs stored on that base to do a hell of a lot of damage. anyhow best of luck be fair dinkum bye...
