Description
021511 Squadron Leader (Sqn Ldr) (later Air Vice Marshal) Graham Wallace Neil, RAAF, (left), 19th Tactical Air Support Squadron (19th TASS), United States Air Force (USAF) and two unidentified members of the USAF standing next to an OV-10A Bronco (with black spinners), at the US Army base at Tay Ninh West in South Vietnam. Sqn Ldr Neil was forced to land his aircraft at this (nearest) airbase due to a lack of fuel after completing two prolonged and dangerous forward air control missions in the Trai Bi area. A fuel hose is visible (background) probably filling the port side wing tank.
