Col. John Noble MAG 12 CO Cuts Cake at Chu Lai June 1, 1965. Looking on are Lt. Col. Robert W. Baker VMA 225 CO, Maj Don Gillum VMA 225 XO and Maj. David Teichmann VMA 225 S1. As you can see, the Taxiiways have been barely started and it has just finished raining. Still trying to figure out where they got the cake. Everybody had been eating C Rations for over a week when this picture was taken.
