One of the bright spots at Da Nang was China Beach.  Whether it was a squadron party or just a break in the non-stop action on the flight line,  many troopers list "Going to China Beach" as a favorite place to get away.  Again, a Doug Hall photo on top showing the troopers hitting the beach.  And the bottom photo of the north end of the beach was sent by Phil Jordan which expresses some of  the beach's serenity.
