 "Moonlight patrol waits to ambush a company of Viet Cong raiders hiding near Go Vap. Members of the Popular Forces -- a kind of home guard -- nightly comb their district, which lies within mortar range of strategic Tan Son Nhut Airport. Lights of a plane from the airfield streak above the hut. The Communists had recently hit the area, burning 50 homes and blowing up a maternity clinic. But Popular Forces soliders, like the stern-faced one at right, later killed five raiders."
