[QUOTE="longnine009, post: 26253841, member: 1886"]Stolen From lll MAF 5c Brass, C/A, 4.82 grams, 21mm, VN2430a Located in Camp Horn Danang, lll Marine Amphibious Force was the 9th Marine Expeditionary Brigade that came ashore on Red Beach in March 1965. I remember seeing a full front page photo of it on Newsday as a kid. 9th Marine changed their name, first to lll Marine Expeditionary Brigade and then lll Marine Amphibious Force or lll MAF. 3rd Division of lll MAF was given the job of implementing Mcnamaras Line or what was to be a line of electronic sensors south of the DMZ and along the Ho Chi Minh Trail. One such sensor was the ADSID or Air Delivered Seismic Intrusion Detector. The device buried itself and then detected vibrations made by troop and vehicle movement. Data from sensors were relayed to the Infiltration Surveillance Center in Thailand for evaluation. The system was scrapped in 1968. [ATTACH=full]1677053[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1677054[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
