Photographer’s remark

Unknown Water cannon send off for United Airlines 862. UA 862 is the return flight to San Francisco via Hong Kong, this will be a daily flight. Flight originated from SFO with a transit stop at HKG. I believe UA is the first major American carrier to fly in and out of SGN since the war.
