As you might have seen in the Huey Radio/headset thread.... I had help with my 1/32 Huey from Jack C. Combs of the 173rd AHC 'Robinhoods' now a retired Air National Guard Chief Warrent Officer, Huey / Hook driver and trainer.
Here is a story that I first noticed in Squadrons Huey book so I asked Mr. Combs if he knew of ths Gary fellow from the 173rd and of this mission?.......He said "OH YES!"......He was hovering just about 100 feet above and behind a bit when the rockets first came in...VERY HOT LZ!
Well here is Gary's story a very interesting day and rescue indeed.
