certain it was a Herald! It certainly looked to be one, but the picture was

Scott, it most certainly is possible. I have not been there to see for myself
(and I don't have cable or satellite TV, so I can't even get to the History
Channel). The Spare Parts Catalogue, in its pages and pages of lighting system
spec's (headlamps in particular) for various countries, lists Vietnam as one of
many markets for which special lighting was specified. (Might have been similar
to France; I don't have the SPC here at work, so I'm not sure.)
