Default Useful links...

Some links I have used for the Viet War Pack :

Maps of Vietnam
Vietnam era helicopters
Sitrep and AAR, may be useful as briefieng model
US Army Helicopter Weapon Systems
Air Mobility 1961-1971
Field Artillery 1954-1973

I have also in PDF (From original documents) :
Vietnam Area Handbook
NVA Infantry Tactics
PLAF/PLAVN Tactics, small Unit Operations
PLAF/PLAVN Reconnaissance Tactics and Techniques
PAVN Artillery (Rocket Units)
The impact of the sapper on the Viet-Nam War
The PLAF/PAVN sapper units
VC Infantry Company Tactics

And I can search in a lot of books for specific questions (Osprey...)

Best regards,
Laurent Touchard

I'll tell you what I'm after:

A lay out of the "Golf Course"/An khe/An Tuc/Camp radclif or any other name the place is called. I've managed to find one map of the area, but it's just too small a scale to effectivly use.

Thanks, I've found some.. but they're no good. One thing I might try is to get a freind to check out the GPS locations with Google Earth. That might provide some clues.

This link is awesome! It might not have photo's of terrain BUT it has Topo's of the whole AO. We should have no problems with accurately reflecting town/village names and base terrain features.

Here, you have some aerial view of different positions in An Khe and Camp Radcliff :
