During the reporting period, the 223d Combat Support Aviation Battalion continued to render support to counter-insurgency operations in the II Corps Tactical Zone, to the fullest extent possible. This support was rendered utilizing the assets of four reconnaissance airplane companies, one utility airplane company and one surveillance airplane company. On 27 November 1967, the 5th Aviation Detachment was assigned and further attached to Qui Nhon Sub Area Command less administration. The 5th Aviation Detachment was redesignated the 58th Aviation Detachment Support, effective 13 January 1968. Construction during the period was vigorously pursued resulting in the completion of a BOQ, dismantling of a condemned building and renovating the area to begin a recreational site containing a volleyball, tennis and basketball court. Parking area and access roads were landscaped and stone surfaced to eliminate some of the muddy conditions encountered during the seasonal rainy period. (Author)
