We were 5 passengers and a Jeep. Couldn't land at intermediate stop Pleiku as we would have over run the quarter mile dirt strip [Pleiku had 2 Hueys at that time]. [ 2 years later Pleiku was almost as big as Thon Son Nuit in Saigon and hosted Bob Hope.] CV2 dropped us off at Phu Bai and doubled back to Pleiku to deliver the Jeep. Don't remember what the Air Force renamed the CV2 after they stole them from the Army. 3 Quote Link to comment
