<< ... By 1968, the 12th USAF Hospital at Cam Ranh Bay Air Base was the largest in-country Air Force facility, and the second largest hospital in the Air Force, with 475 operating beds and a 100-bed casualty staging facility. The Cam Ranh Bay airfield was also the main aeromedical evacuation hub for Southeast Asia.

flareship operations

The article mentions "flareship operations". I cannot find an explanation of what a flareship is in this context. The word "flareship" is causing this page to appear on a list of pages containing misspellings because the word is not defined in wiktionary. If someone would explain to me what it means, I would be happy to add a definition to Wiktionary. Mark (talk) 02:27, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A military aircraft that drops Battlefield illumination Flares. regards Mztourist (talk) 03:26, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. I have added the definition to Wiktionary. Mark (talk) 13:06, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
