| Comments: | I just gave this a "10" rating hoping it means good, because I remember "you number 10 GI" being bad in the Vinh Long bars.
Shot down with Hal Scott, who just passed away in May this year - I was his co-pilot and am alive today due to his expertise and autorotating into the jungle canopy. Unfortundately, for Hal, he was badly injured and lived until the ripe age of 74 in a wheel chair - just talked to his wife.
Am going to try to get to the reunion.
Thank to all of you who served.

| Comments: | I joined the Outlaws in 65 as a door gunner from the 25th. Div. in Hawaii. Sp/5 Allie was my crewchief and mentor.Shortly after returning to Hawaii I was shipped back to Vietnam as a tunnel rat demolitions expert.
I will always be proud that I rode with the best.. Allie... I never could figure out why you wanted the chopper painted when it kept getting holes in it !!! Sheese. |

| Comments: | This is John Brennan, active member of the VHCMA and the 114th Avn Co Assn. I'm collecting "names" (e.g. FLYING COFFIN, IRON BUTTERFLY) that in-country Army copter crews painted on their aircraft during their Vietnam tours, 1961-73. Future book by aviation publisher is in the making.
Have cataloged 2,731 names to date. I expect that number to exceed 3,000 when complete. Would very much like to include as many PERSONALIZED copter names as possible. Photos of "names" are fine but not necessary to be included in the database section of the book. "Names" alone will do.
The second part of this book project is the photo collection of helicopter "nose art" that includes "names", artwork, graffiti, everything & anything that was painted officially and unofficially on in-country
Army copters, 1961-73.
Send "name" info and/or scanned "nose art" pics to johnmailman@yahoo.com
Regards, John Brennan, former SP5, Flight Operations Coordinator, 114 AHC, Vinh Long AAF, Mekong Delta, 1970-71
PS: In-Country YEARBOOKS are often a great source for copter "names". Take a peek and give me a shout if something interesting is found.

| Comments: | Steve Gray// I was in Vinh Long in 67 and 68. Iwas with the 611th air derect support. I did alittle door gunning and a little convoy driving and alittle fork lift operating. I was the odd number who got to do all the jobs no one else wanted to do or because I was always handy. Not complaining. Get back to me soon at butchblair48@yahoo.com |
