Memories For This Unit

Best Moment
Being part of the first (Alpha Cadre)group of OV-10A's to go to Vietnam. Then getting my Combat Air Crew Wings for flying as a door gunner with the Squadron's HUEY's.

Worst Moment
Each time we lost a crew member in combat.
   

Other Memories
Taking a round through a main rotor blade and having to make an emergency landing during covering troop inserts in Operation Meade River. Couple hours on the ground before being picked up.
