Description
A Viet Cong prison camp for American and South Vietnamese prisoners is located in a July 1971 item, in a place the title cuts off. Joint camps were common in the south, where the Viet Cong held their captives near the fighting. The item's job is the location itself.
A bare location still carried weight: it told searchers where to look and airmen where danger sat. It also let later sightings from the same area lock onto a known site. Many entries in the prison map began as one-line fixes like this. The file preserves the fix as filed, before description or confirmation could be added.
