General Note
The parade grounds at 5th Division HQ. The two chateau-type buildings were built by the French. The one on the rights was used by field-grade officers assigned to Team 70. Between the flagpoles there was a plaque listing the names of 45 Team 70 members who had been killed in action. Almost all of these heroes were advisors assigned to one of the three combat regiments in the division (7th, 8th, and 9th). The regimental advisors had a KIA rate of 28% from 1965 through 1968.
