OK -- we had the same type birds flying in/out of DaNang in 65' </div></div>

Correct, there were quit a few outfits with them back then, allot of Air Force, allot of different missions. Our VW-1 squadron was based out of Guam and the primary squadron mission was low level Typhoon recon, and during the Viet Nam war we always had a deployment of 2 AC based at Chu Lai on a 2 week rotation.
We did due one deployment out of Da Nang in 68.

These were recon connies based out of Korat Air Base in Thailand, ever see one at Da Nang ?
If you look at the upper fuselage it looks like the upper Radome was removed. This is a Ec121
