An RAAF Iroquois helicopter crewman has his M60 machine gun cocked and ready as the helicopter swoops low over the fortified village of Bu Dop, two miles from the Cambodia-Vietnam border. The rectangular shaped fort can be seen at the bottom of the picture. The fort is a heavily fortified United States (US) Special Forces (Green Beret) camp, manned by South Vietnamese troops with their US advisors. The fort is about 165 miles north of the RAAF Base at Vung Tau.
