Photo G0733:  The Phu Cuong Bridge on Highway 8A in Binh Duong Province was severely damaged by a Viet Cong sapper attack on 6 November 1969. The bridge crossed the 700-foot wide Saigon River and was a critical link in the daily Tay Ninh Convoys that supplied the 25th Infantry Division and other allied units that countered enemy incursions from the Cambodian sanctuaries in western III Corps Tactical Zone. The buildings in the top (right) of the picture are the South Vietnamese Army Engineer (training) Academy.    Courtesy SP/4 Harry G.
