Cam Ranh Bay, South Vietnam, February, 1966: Two airmen fuel an F-4C Phantom jet at the Cam Ranh Bay airstrip. To solve the problem of how to get fuel to the planes during construction at the base, a six-inch pipeline was built from a tanker anchored in the bay to the airstrip. The pipeline reportedly could move 30,000 gallons per hour. ©Stars and Stripes, Wallace Beene
