Original caption: "Planeside services for Captain Robert D. Bennett and First Lieutenant William B. Tully, who were killed Nov. 5 when their VNAF B-26 crashed during the support mission, are conducted by Chaplain Donald Squires near the Tan Son Nhut terminal, as pallbearers representing the 2nd Air Division look on. The bodies were transported to Clark AB, Philippines, and from there to their next of kin in the States." Two groups of men stand around two coffins draped with American flags, while a chaplain reads from the bible. In the background there is a group of people standing in an aircraft.
