Gunships of the 188th AHC recently killed 24 enemy soldiers in an assault against a suspected enemy base camp NW of Tay Ninh. In support of elements of the 25th Inf Div, the gunships surprised the enemy in an open area and poured heavy concentrations of firepower upon a large number of enemy soldiers.
