Book excerpt: Through my photos, Ive documented my tour of duty in Vietnam. Our photo journey begins at Red Beach, where the first US troops landed in Vietnam. Next we pass by Freedom Hill and the Rock Pit before we get to First Marine Division HQ's. Heading south we move past fire bases and the Hoi An ROK Marine Base. We then head north past Marble Mountain and enter the China Beach compound. We pass thru downtown Da Nang and pass by the Da Nang Air Base. We then head down the busy road to Monkey Mountain. Next take a look around Camp Tien Sha. We then drive past Deep Water Pier and up the steep windy Monkey Mountain road, where our journey ends, overlooking where we have been.
