CHU  LAI  6/67-8/67

In June, 1967 the Brigade departed Tay Ninh, and moved north to Chu Lai, located 56 miles south of

Da Nang on the South China Sea. The 196th became part of the Americal Division

Through the efforts of the 175th engineers and elements of the 588th and 65th Engineer Battalions,

we were able to enjoy a life of relative comfort on the Tay Ninh, base camp. By the time we departed

for Chu Lai, the base camp was already sporting a massive logistical complex, and a large community center which boasted a post office, outdoor theater, chapel and entertainment center
