The PBR's went to Vietnam for the first time in early 1966-to Cat Lo & later to My Tho. I had command of River Section 543 in Cat Lo, on an LST (which I can't remember) anchored at the mouth of the Soi Rap river,& in Nha Be-this was in 1966-1967-
I assumed command around August from Lt. "Hank" Mauz( I had ben originally assigned in July as his Operations Officer )who went away to command a Minesweeper & later became CinCLant ! -he retired as a full Admiral sometime around 1985 !
I came back from Vietnam in July 1967 & stayed in the USN until 1983. when I retired as a Captain, having served 34 years in all ranks from SR to Captain-I was commissioned Ensign in 1960 (from CPO) in the NESEP program.

My name is Dan Clark, I was stationed at NSA Det Cat Lo from 1967 till 1969. I was stationed ashore and operated the crane that pulled the Swift boats out of the water for repairs.
Good web site. Not many about Cat Lo. Do you know where I could get any maps or drawings of the base?
