The natives were friendly On May 7, ESTES, along with about 14 other ships, anchored 3000 yards off Baie de Dung Quat to begin one of the largest amphibious operations in the Pacific since the Korean con- flict. Sailors, Marines, and Seabees made up the force which provided security and equip- ment for construction of an airfield at Chu Lai, some 60 miles south of DaNang. It was a completely over-the-beach oper- ationg the task force and marines bringing with them all of the resources and mechanisms of amphibious warfare necessary to complete the mission. Marines crossed the beaches in land- ing craft and also utilized helicopter vertical envelopment techniques to land troops and sup- plies inland of the beach area. ESTES, acting as Admiral Wulzen's com- mand and communications center, facilitated control over the forces which made this a suc- cessful operation.
