Landing Zone Liz
Landing Zone (LZ) Liz was a forward support base for the US Marines and later for the US Army during the Vietnam War.
LZ Liz was located in Quang Ngai Province, I Corps, south of Da Nang and Chu Lai, west of Highway 1, north of LZ Bronco and Đức Phổ. It was on the Duc Pho and Mo Duc borders, just south of the 515 Highway, that ran from the South China Sea (Highway 1) west to Ba To. LZ Liz consisted of two small hills with a saddle running in between. The saddle was occupied by the artillery. Liz was connected to Highway 1 by an access road that was about 3/4 of a mile in length.
==History==
LZ Liz was occupied in late December 1967 by the 3rd Battalion, 1st Infantry Regiment of the 11th Light Infantry Brigade, 23rd (Americal) Infantry Division, primarily Alpha and Bravo companies.
In July 1968 C battery of the 1/82 Artillery was deployed to LZ Liz and the guns were moved from the saddle to the eastern hill facing the South China Sea. The 1/82nd supplied support for the Đức Phổ Base Camp and the field troops of the 1/20th. Beginning with Tet 1969 the LZ began to be attacked with Mortor and rocket attacks on a periodic basis. In June 1969 more infiltration attacks were successful and the Artillery sustained casualties. The access road also became a time bomb as undetectable mines were planted. LZ Liz was the last support base for 1/20th Infantry, 11th Light Infantry Brigade (4th Bn 3rd Bd), 23rd Infantry Division prior to their standing down and moving to Chu Lai in September 1971.
