Helicopters UH-34 landing on top of a Marine outpost, 9 miles northwest of Da Nang. The outpost is home to what is possibly the smallest helicopter landing zone in Vietnam. Due to limited space, choppers land with their two front wheels on the outpost while the rear one dangles over the hill's slopes. The photo was taken by SSgt Savatt, Jr. on July 24, 1965.
