Description

"Lonely Vigil: A 1st Marine Division Leathernecks mans a lonely outpost in the Dodge City-Go Noi Island area in the heart of Quang Nam Provinces’s ‘Rice Triangle’ during Operation Pipestone Canyon. The multi-battalion, three-nation operation is aimed at re-opening Route 4 from Dai Loc to Dien Ban, while at the same time driving enemy forces from the region by destroying their facilities and captured their supplies of weapons and food (official USMC photo by Sergeant A. V. Huffman)."
