Vietnam, Vietnam War, 101st Airborne, 3/187th

Land

This page contains pictures that I took of the land and landscapes of Vietnam.  I took these pictures of the lowlands, mountains and mountain valleys of northern South Vietnam.  Some of them are aerial photos taken from Hueys.  Others were taken from hill tops and firebases.  We spent a lot of time in the Thua Thien and Quang Tri provinces west and north west of Hue.  I hope to someday find out where some of these places are.
