125th ATC arrival at Dak To - June, 1967
About 10 men from the 125th Air Traffic Company arrived at Dak To in the middle of June, 1967. The airfield had been unused for some time, and the area was overgrown. On our first night, the Special Forces A camp, across the runway from where we had set up our tent, was attacked. We spent the night crouched in a ditch, waiting for an assault that never came. Over the next few days, groups of helicopters started bringing in troops and equipment.
