"Chopper Resupply: Private First Class Charles K. Hamilton (Durham, North Carolina) unhooks an external load cable from a Marine CH-46 Sea Knight helicopter during a resupply just below the demilitarized zone. Hamilton, a member of 2d Battalion, 3d Marines [2/3] participated in a joint Army of the Republic of Vietnam and 3d Marine Division thrust into mountainous jungles southwest of Con Thien.
