Co C (Det C-1) Danang
The Special Forces A-Teams in Viet Nam were under the control of a 'company'. Each of the 'corps' in RVN had a company-level unit. This page will provide a look at Company C, the company-unit in I Corps... its role and some of the men stationed there. However, you must realize that there was a lot more to Company C than is presented here. It is suggested that you use the links to visit some of the other Special Forces web sites to learn more about the other facets of a company-unit, such as their 'Mike Forces' and 'attached' helicopter units. And lastly, we will digress slightly to take a brief look at the Special Forces unit in Nha Trang. Nha Trang was the headquarters for the 5th Special Forces Group, Republic of Viet Nam.
