I have personally been to firebase tomahawk which is located on the coast about 45km from Hue City, near Phu Loc, I climbed to the top where the base once was and you can still see some old tarmac from the firebase however it has been retaken by vegatation, it is however very interesting to visit.

Were was the 175 gun first used in Vietnam?

Vietnam was divided by the US military into 4 Military Regions, also called Corps: MR1, MR2, MR3, MR4, or I Corps, II Corps, III Corps, IV Corps. 175's landed in country in '65. The only noted ones were SPs (Self Propelled Guns). The most dangerous AOs (Areas of Operation) in South Vietnam were the Highlands (II Corps) and I Corps; that's where the NVA were. South of those two AOs were mostly VC. The 175's appeared to be concentrated in I and II corps. Normally only one 175mm gun would be at a Firebase (also called LZ's-Landing Zones). Firebase Blackhawk at the top of the Mang Yang Pass in the Highlands had one such gun. The only good thing about 175's for non-artillerymen, was you could tell when they were going to fire it...it would lower it's tube for loading...when it raised, everyone could plug their ears; because they knew it was going to fire. The worst thing about firebases in South Vietnam was that they were very noisy. And you couldn't carry on a conversation with a 175mm banging away. Batteries of 155mm SPs were also bad, the vibrations from those guns, six to a battery (after Vietnam the army went to 8 guns per battery) would knock the paper plate full of YOUR FOOD out of your hands. And while holding your food, you couldn't plug your ears. 105mm field guns were also bad, but they were smallest batteries at a firebase, still noisy. 105's & 155's were stationed at Firebases by the battery (six guns), but the 175's seemed to be alone.

How do you make a sentence with noticeable?

The difference in talent was noticeable as one performer was constantly making mistakes in her performance. I've spilt tomato sauce on my shirt, although I've cleaned it the best I can it is still noticeable. I tried to attract your attention but was so far away that even though I was jumping and waving I don't think I was noticeable from where you were standing
