Summary

[edit]

This airstrip at Khe Sanh Combat Base is not the original airstrip. What you see in this photo is the airstrip built for Lam Son 719 in 1971. The original Khe Sanh airstrip is further north and east and is all but gone. While the surrounding areas are now covered with coffee plants, nothing has been able to grow on the former airstrip.
