Ha Thanh was opened on the 28 April 1965 by Cpt
J.A Helms A-5/33 team,
later on Ha Thanh A-team was designated as A-104. Ha Thanh is situated in the Son
Ha District, Quang Ngai Province
in the Highlands of South Vietnam. Like many more camps, Ha Thanh
was converted to Vietnamese Border Ranger late August
1970.
If you compare the 1966 photos with the 1970 ones,
you will notice that Ha Than like all A-camp has
harden itself, with some more concreted mortar pits and
bunkers,
especially by the entrance road.
