Description: The short history page in the 57th AHC 1971 Yearbook states that in April the 57th was once again flying up near the tri-border area as the SF camp of Dak Seang was under siege. After a month of fierce fighting, the NVA retreated back into Laos. Thanks to emergency resupply by the 57th AHC and other aviation units in the 52d Battalion, the camp repelled all the ground attacks.
