Danny Yate's Photos

 

Danny Yates was in an artillery unit, part of the 3rd Brigade, 25th Infantry Division in the 66/67 timeframe.  He sent these two pictures for us to enjoy.

A Caribou landing at Duc Pho at LZ Montezuma on what was then a dirt airstrip.  That would have been around Feb/Mar 1967.  I had the opportunity to walk out on that airstrip last year.  [Note the transitional paint scheme.  This appears to be aircraft 62-4191.]

 

A Caribou parked next to Hwy 19, south of Pleiku at the Tea Plantation.
