From the Staging Area in Saigon the 6/27th Artillery moved to
Ben Cat near the
173rd Airborne HQ where they practiced firing support missions and
got organized as batteries. Around November 20, 1965,
Headquarters, Charlie, Service and Bravo Batteries moved in an equipment
convoy, escorted by the 1st Squadron, 4th US Cavalry and elements of
the 1st Engineer Battalion, to
Phouc Vinh. The
troops, however, boarded C-130's and flew there while the equipment
moved in convoy.
