    Summary

    Description
    English: An international police patrol stops at a Saigon check point to await radio orders. Left to right: Sergeant Val Petterson, New Zealand Army; Sergeant Richard D. Green, U.S. Army; Corporal Eric Watkins, Australian Army; and Inspector Do Van Que of the Saigon Municipal Police. Joint Jeep patrols such as this one operate in the Vietnamese Capital to protect the interests of allied troops and simultaneously maintain constant alert for Viet cong terrorist activity. The patrols are part of the security operations of U.S. Navy Headquarters Support Activity, Saigon, which is responsible for the protection of U.S. personnel and installations in Saigon. New Zealand and Australian military headquarters contribute men to include their own personnel and installations in the security net. The 716th U.S. Army military police battalion is assigned to the U.S. Navy Command in Saigon.
