Viet Nam Hawk battery waits on hill above Da Nang
Hal Boyle profiles a U S Marines Hawk missile battery on Hill 27 near Da Nang. The four officers and 87 enlisted men endure boredom and dust as they guard the sky with ground to air missiles aimed at enemy planes. The unit trains on drones on Okinawa and expects to repulse any attack overhead. The battery commander Captain Everett Cowley and crew describe the work as scenic and necessary, not romantic, with sandbags, barbed wire, sentry duty, and a radar room kept cool for equipment. They note the vulnerable position and their readiness to bring down any foe over the base.
