A Marine, serving with Republic of Korea Marines, gives landing instructions to a flight of Sea Knight helicopters orbiting overhead. The helicopters were called to the Ban Tan Peninsula after the Korean Marines captured an enemy trawler loaded with weapons and ammunition. Captured rifles can be seen in the background, along with a anti-aircraft gun mounted on the trawler. The vessel was captured on July 15, 1967.
