Marine pilots of Aircraft Group 11 at Danang, Vietnam, utilize mopeds to quickly reach the flight line from the ready room in order to reduce response time to alerts. These mopeds were purchased by the Marines for this purpose, but now they face the challenge of returning the vehicles back to the ready room. This photograph was taken on July 19, 1965 during the Vietnam War.
