that is how we built our base in Southern RVN . it was all sand anyway and a low water table. we built a perimeter and then sucked sand from the Mekong River to flood the interior . the setting of utility poles were a real trick. as you bored the hole the pole that was tobe inserted HAD to be hoisted up in position to drop IMMEDIATLY into the hole as the bit was pulled out. the water began filling the hole that fast but it worked good as long as we built "dead man" supports to keep the poles from tipping over! Im glad im not there anymore!
