Ubon RTAFB - U.S. Air Force during the Vietnam War & Today

Ubon Hotel Roof Top Views (Gene Ponce 2002 & Jim Foanio 1970-72)

These photos compare the Ubon City as it appeared in 1971 during the great fire that nearly destroyed the entire town. The July 2002 photos were taken by Gene Ponce from the rooftop of the Ubon Hotel. The older photos on the right were taken in 1971 by Jim Foanio, a good friend who was also stationed at Ubon Air Base 1970-72, 621st TCS Det 3.
