Vinh Moc Tunnels
Built by the North Vietnamese during the American War, the tunnels provided protection from the intense bombings by American forces. The tunnels were home to approxiamately 60 families between 1966 to 1972. Seventeen babies were born in the tunnels during that time period.
Families are living in the tunnels to this day.
We stopped our motorcycle to take a look at an old American tank. A concrete slab said somethig about McNamara; unfortunately we can't read Vietnamese so can't tell you what it said.
