VIETNAM ERA USAF NEWS REVIEW F-105 STRIKES ON NORTH VIETNAM 72372

Presented by the United States Air Force, this Vietnam era news review (likely from 1965) features various segments, including hand-to-hand combat training being given to Security Police being deployed to Southeast Asia. The training takes place at Lackland Air Force Base in Texas. Mail service for the troops in Vietnam is shown, with the Saigon Air Mail services being delivered by Pan Am aircraft and processed at Tan Son Hut. F-105 aircraft are shown returning from strikes against North Vietnam and resupplied. They are also seen being refueled by a KC-135 and then attacking highways and railroad bridges east of Hanoi. This material likely dates from Operation Rolling Thunder. F-4C Phantoms are also shown launching missiles and strafing. The story of the 377 Special Police at Tan Son Nhut Air Base, who repelled a heavy guerrilla attack by Viet Cong forces, is seen.
