Personnel Investigate a Crater at a US Installation, Vietnam War Era

Personnel gather around a large crater at a US military installation, likely investigating or clearing the site following a rocket or mortar attack. Rear-area bases throughout South Vietnam and Thailand were periodically targeted by enemy indirect fire, requiring damage assessment and explosive ordnance disposal teams to secure and clear such sites.
