I drove a cab for years in and around Camp Pendleton, lived in San Clemente at the northern end, lived in Fallbrook at the eastern side and on San Onofre (Beach) Campground. The Vietnamese lived in tent city around San Mateo the northern end in 1975 upon the evacuation and I visited them every Sunday.
A fast-moving wildfire burning on and around Camp Pendleton military base in Southern California forced thousands of people to flee in the early morning hours of Christmas Eve.
The fire, dubbed the Creek Fire, broke out just after 11 p.m. Wednesday local time. By 1 a.m. Thursday it had forced evacuations of housing areas on Camp Pendleton, a sprawling, 195-square-mile U.S. Marine Corps base between San Diego and Los Angeles.
