This
page will display photographs of the 13th Aviation Battalion in and
around Can Tho and the Delta area of Vietnam. The 13th went through
many name and insignia changes. We will try to present as much
of the history of this group, as we can find information available to
do so with. The group area is being started with photos
furnished by Robert Payette, that worked with the HHC 13th Delta
Aviation Bn. in 1965. |
