Was this Engineer Battalion at Cam Rahn Bay? I am looking for information on Engineer Battalions that were based at Cam Rahn Bay from around 1966-1969. My father, Thomas Sushinsky, was a Construction Engineer (62E20) that was at Cam Rahn Bay, but I do not know what Battalion or group. I know this is a long shot, but can anyone point me in the right direction for possible Battalions? My father passed away in 1984, and I have many pictures and slides from when he was there, but little information.

The 577th EBC arrived at Cam Ranh Bay at the end of July 1966 from from Fort Benning GA. The 577th moved to Tuy Hoa in November 1966 except for C company which immediately went to Long Binh from Cam Ranh Bay. C co 577th later moved to Dong Tam and became B co 69th EBC and eventually evolved into B co 36th EBC at Vinh Long. In 1966 elements of the 45th EBC,65th EBC and 20th EBC were located in the Cam Ranh Bay area also.
