I found it on the web, but if I had to take a guess, I'd say Da Nang. The revetments are too long unless he is out past the end by the taxiway. Then again, could be on the apron in between the last hangar and the 323 revetments, just dunno.
Truth be told, I only recall loading 750 pound stuff while with VMFA-122 in Da Nang. Could be just my 64 yr old memory, but it seemed Chu Lai specialized more in close air support. Maybe because the birds could quickly take off without waiting for airliners, Air Force, and whatever.
Lots of Hot Pad, Snake and Nape, 2.75" FFAR and Zunis. Hot and sweaty stuff during day, and working at night brought the rocket attacks.
I was night crew just about the whole time I was in the Marines. The time for the rocket attacks seemed to be around 2 to 3 am at Da Nang. That is just about the time I was always sitting in a cockpit doing the daily avionics checks on all the aircraft they were always already loaded with their bombs and I was doing the final checks to make sure all electronics were ready for the early morning sorties.
Our sand bagged bomb shelter just outside the hanger. I am on the right.
