You'll see footage filmed while driving through the countryside and shots on the base -- hospital quonset buildings and Navy trailers, and helicopters flying in the distance. There are scenes of Bennett MacDonald clowning around with a group of Green Berets, and later, wearing a large straw hat, at a Navy party in Tien Sha.
She filmed some quick glimpses inside a hospital building in Danang, and shots of patients/soldiers lined up for snacks at a Red Cross Clubmobile. There are some slightly out-of-focus shots of a bridge being built and river scenes, a view while driving past a small church building, and shots of flooded countryside.
There's a BBQ on base at which an older officer entertains everyone by playing the bagpipes, and in the city you'll have a balcony view of tanks rounding the street corner below, and see footage filmed inside the Red Cross Office compound in Danang.
Other footage includes:
~Crusader jet being towed
~Sign: "Marble Mountain Airfield, Home of MAG-16"
~Sign: "Naval Support Activity Bulk POL"
~"I Corps Advisory Chapel MAC-V" sign & chaplain(?)
~Sign: "Mobile Construction Battalion X"
... and more!
