unit history information
for 119 AHC
For date 700616
119 AHC was a US Army unit
Primary service involved, US Army
Pleiku Province, II Corps, South Vietnam
Location, FSB BLACKHAWK
Description: The 119th unit history states that today consisted of further resupply to the elements south of LZ BLACKHAWK, LZ SPARTAN, and smaller elements in VC Valley. Weather was the usual low ceiling with intermittent rain squalls throughout the day. Finally the weather persisted forcing seven Gator aircraft to RON in Pleiku. The fact that there was a live show appearing in Pleiku was purely coincidental of course.
The source for this information was 119th Sup Hist by CW2 Oliver & W01 Wiggin (covered 1970)
Additional information is available on CD-ROM.
