Hurst01, it was a good time we had, despite the War, you can never replace our stories with anything that would even come close Gary Owen buddy, "there it is"

Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
To this day I feel guilty about that, it should have been me instead of the 19 year old that took my place. Looking back, I realize that it was part of Gods plan for me to transfer out. There has been many times that I should not have survived, or lived through different circumstances but God has been with me through each one

"Yeh there is no other ride like the Huey. The sound to a combat veteran of Vietnam can be heard for miles, while others have no clue it is coming"Yeh there is no other ride like the Huey. The sound to a combat veteran of Vietnam can be heard for miles, while others have no clue it is coming. I noticed the pics from Pawnshop show the 101 Cav. insignia. We flew most of our missions with the Hornets. Huey 369 was a medivac and had a short lived tour as with most medivac. (6 months was the norm). The newest bird 803 lasted 2 1/2 years. 803 went into a hot LV and had to land hard, breaking the skids on impact. The started to scuttle the ship when a Col. came in and asked if it still ran. The answer was yes and he told them to fly it out. The returned to base, landing on a quickly made pad of sand bags. You can see and hear more about both ships at www.americanheuy369.com. Thanks for the input guys....
