Unloading cargo, 1966

Saigon, December, 1966

Soldiers from the 1st Logistical Command's 71st Transportation Battalion are pressed into service unloading military cargo from ship to shore after thousands of Saigon's stevedores walked off the job in a labor dispute. The strike, which began on Christmas Day, was soon settled, and the troops went back to their regular duties.
