Just came across this site. Enjoyed looking at the pictures. I wasn’t Cav, but I did fly every day in the areas of III Corp you guys did. I was a crew chief on Hueys with the 118th AHC out of Bien Hoa. Good times and bad, but I sure enjoyed the flying! I was in country from July 31, ’68 till April 11, ’70. But was pulled off flight status when shot down on Dec. 23, ’69, so was platoon sergeant till I left.
