Photo of Quan Loi Tower taken sometime after November 1968.
Note 1st Air Cav logo. Logo prior was that of 1st Infantry Division (Big Red ONE).
Prior to the installation of this cab, Quan Loi Tower was M151 jeep with a PRC-40,
parked under the tree next to the areo port and weather cab.

This is similar style of tower cab (TSQ-70a) used at Quan Loi.
(This one was at 45th DustOff pad, Long Bhin.)

The control tower remained in use until near the end of 1969,
it was then replaced by a taller, slightly larger tower just north of the old tower.

A GCA installed in late fall 69' at the northeast end, east side of the runway.
