VIET NAM, 6 R&R In Vung Tau 1969

This short video describes a short R&R (Rest & Recreation) visit of 3 days to an In-Country location at Vung Tau, a port in Vietnam on the South China Sea. During the Vietnam War, soldiers were allowed one short In-Country R&R and one week-long R&R to an overseas destination that included Hong Kong, Sydney, Hawaii and Tokyo.

Beautiful place. There was no war in Vung Tau. The VC were making too much money from taxing the bars. Rumor was that the Americans used the beaches during the day and the VC used them at night.
