- During Operation Cedar Falls, the 25th Infantry Division's objective was to help clear the Iron Triangle and seal off the Saigon River. Members of the 5th Mechanized Infantry Regiment move through chest-high brush in search of Viet Cong. Dick Welsh, DASPO cameraman, can be seen reloading his camera in the foreground. Dick is the only soldier with baseball a cap on instead of a helmet. Photo by Robert C. Lafoon US Army Sp Photo Det, Pacific
