An Khê base relic display

[chu linh chi]

I'm just finish the display 1 day ago.

information in wiki:
An Khe (Vietnamese: An Khê) is a town (thị xã) of Gia Lai Province in the Central Highlands region of Vietnam. Located on the main highway, QL-19 between Qui Nhon on the coast and Pleiku in the Central Highlands, An Khe was of strategic significance during the Vietnam War. From mid-1965 to 1968, the American 1st Cavalry Division was based there. The 1st Cav saw ongoing action in the war. The Army 25th Ordnance Detachment (Explosive Ordnance Disposal) also was located at the base camp and provided disposal support. Later in 1968 the 1st Cavalry Division relocated, and the Army's 173rd Airborne Brigade took over the base camp.

Enjoy

In the 4th picture from the top, the unknown tool is a handle for a cleaning rod for the M14 rifle.

It will be great if you come to Vietnam. In summer I will dig in C2 base in DMZ. You are always welcome in Vietnam!

Paul is correct - the 'unkown' item in the foreground of pic 4 is a
U.S. combination tool/cleaning rod handle.

Indeed, nice to see your display of Vietnam relics.........
