560th Light Equipment Maintenance Company (Direct Support) was initially
billeted at the 5th Maintenance Battalion (Direct Support) compound
located in the southern part of Phu Tai Valley. In February 1968 it
was relocated to Camp Radcliff at An Khe in the Central Highlands just
off of Route QL19 that ran between Qui Nhon and Pleiku. This unit
provided direct support functions to many of the non-divisional units in
their area of operation. This included but was not limited to vehicle
maintenance support for several transportation units. The unit was
deactivated in December 1970. |
