Two LSTs (Landing Ship Tank) tied up at a dock fronting Bach Dang near the foot of Hai Ba Trung on a quiet afternoon in the spring of  1965. LST 808 is reported to have been a South Korean operated vessel as the original hull number 808 was sunk by a kamikaze torpedo in 1945. 

Note the nicely dressed family in identical outfits and the woman wearing an aoi dai. The ubiquitous Renault taxicabs zoom along while American 2 1/2 ton trucks haul incoming war materiel off to somewhere.

At that time all incoming freight was unloaded at the piers along the river in downtown Saigon. A year or two later military port operations moved to the newly constructed Newport facility upriver.
