Caption/Description

Two soldiers of the U.S. First Infantry Division sit in a jungle clearing about 50 miles north-west of Saigon, sharing a poncho to keep from being drenched by a Vietnamese monsoon downpour. Their unit had just been resupplied with rations and water by the helicopter in the background. They were waiting for the rain to let up in order to continue their search.
