I got here by the Octofoil Webring. Don't know exactly what the 709th Maint did but will be checking out the rest of your site. I was at Ben Luc and have some pictures too.

You can link to the 31st site through my site at http://pub39.ezboard.com/b6thbattalionofthe31stinfantry Just go to the links section.

I have slides of the C Company 709th forward base at Xuan Loc. Unfortunately, my scanner doesn't have a slide attachment. I will get them scanned and posted to you.
I joined the company at Xuan Loc in Nov 67. We returned to Bear Cat sometime in January 68. I was on a contact team at a small fire support base during Tet 68 and we had already returned to base camp.
