![]() Good picture of the tower while based at an ARVN infantry camp near Loc Giang. Each section of the tower consisted of one ladder and a catwalk and was 6 feet tall. A small white crane can be seen at the top. It was used to hoist tower sections during assembly and disassembly. The tubing in each section was made of thin-wall aluminum. We had the misfortune of having the tower fall over during our first disassembly when at the 24 foot level; we negelected to secure guy-wires to the next lower level. I got to ride it down along with another guy. About 30 days after I left Vietnam the tower in this picture was blown down by a Monsoon. |
