Today the airstrip at Dục Mỹ is used for drying a root that is used for cattle and pig feed. The chipped roots are spread out along the entire length of runway as well as along the parallel taxiway. No sign of a control tower or any other original buildings.

The US built this strip as a reliever for Nha Trang Air Base (VVNT) during the Vietnam War. In the satellite photo, it appears abandoned.
