Destatte Comments: "Members of the
team that inspected the area at the base of the cliff below the
TACAN/TSQ site in early 1994 told me that they found remnants of the
antenna and its mount at the base of the cliff".

Lt/Col Farnsworth comments on this picture:
"I
recall that while circling the spot and taking this pic one of the
chopper pilots told me that he thought it had been brought down by enemy
fire and was resting in a heavily mined area. The mines being the reason
it was never recovered and the locals never attempted to cannibalize
it." {Source:
