Artillery Hill - Pleiku

Located at ZA 225-535, this was the location for several battalions of large-caliber artillery, including 8-inch howitzers and 175mm guns. There were searchlights atop this hill capable of producing a dazzling light show. Among the units stationed here at one time or another were the 7th Battalion 15th Artillery (8-inch and 175mm self-propelled guns), the 1st Battalion 92nd Artillery (towed 155mm), and the HQs of the 52nd Artillery group. Here is an
