You can see the sandbags there. We kept two guys there at all times. They were equipped with M-14 rifles, binoculars, and a Starlight Scope at night. They were there to spot enemy swimmers and floating mines. Because of classified gear, we could take few pictures of the insides. The helicopter pad on top was added in Sasebo. Flight crews lived below the helo pad. On the main deck were officers' bunkrooms and wardroom, and the mess deck, where enlisted men enjoyed 24-hour food service. The rest of the main deck was devoted to repair and maintenance. We could berth and feed 300 men. The insides were air conditioned, and we had unlimited fresh water for bathing and eating.

This is YRBM-16 seen in probably late July, early August of 1968 in the Bassac River, pointed up river toward Cambodia. At this point, we're about two miles from the Vinh Te Canal, which formed the actual border. For those of who served aboard YRBM-16, also called the Barge, if you were on there before Thanksgiving of '67, you remember her as being white and you remember that there was only one level on the main deck. There was no helicopter pad and there were no living quarters under the helo pad. This is the way we rebuilt her in Sasebo after she was mined. Notice also on the top of the mast, there's a big crow's nest up there. That was an all-volunteer assignment up there because you had to climb the mast. We kept an M-14 loaded with tracers and at night, also a starlight scope and a PRC-10 radio up there so that the observer could start firing tracers if he saw anything. Notice up on the bow too, you'll see a lot of sandbags and in this next picture, you'll see them even better.
