(8-10) Viet Marines loading up. (11) still don't know the name of this plane. (12) The convoy was stopped for more than an hour-- no one had bothered to check whether an out bridge had been repaired, but it hadn't. (13-14) C-rat cartons add a homey touch to rural Vietnamese architecture. (15-16) the convoy is stalled, but life goes on for the villagers, including (16) an elder in traditional dress riding his bike. (17-20) Scenes along slaughter alley.
