I served "I" Corps Bridge detail as a USMC Military Police stationed at Camp Tiensha in November 1966. The first image is of Premier Ngyun Cao Ky crossing in the Mercedes, my QC partner waving him through. The second is Post #4 looking east. You can clearly see the pontoon brige the Seabees installed. The third is of me with a young friend. - Jack Stanfill

the AN/PVS-1 Starlight scope did not "amplify" the light at night time. the number of photons that entered were directly proportionate to the number exiting. The multi-alkaline photocathode (photon to electron converter) had a light sensitivity that took in visible light AS WELL AS Near-IR light which is invisible to the naked eye. A different part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
