PX Now offers CD of Vietnam Maps Showing LZ's and FSB's
	If you visit our MAP PAGE on this website, you see all the areas where the Red Warriors tromped the bush. Now these full sized military Maps are available on one single CD through the PX. Each Map has identified the known LZ's and FSB's on that particular map. Maps are approximately 29x22 inches and once on your computer screen, you can zoom in and find out exactly where you were ...providing you have a grid coordinate. But much of the guess work is taken out because the LZ's are identified, including those inside Cambodia in 1970. Twenty Four Maps included on this CD. Each map is one large jpg format image, about 15MG in size. See PX PAGE.
