Thought any Vietnam Vets might be interested in this. I haven't seen it yet a buddy of mine has and says it doesn't leave a dry eye in the house.

When the last Blackhawk is airlifted to the junkyard, I sure it will be a Huey carrying it.

I agree. This is the one I was assigned in Vietnam. Don't know its fate, it was turned over the the South Vietnamese shortly after I left.

If you want to know what happened to a Huey or a Pilot, go to: http://www.VHPA.org
The Vietnam Helicopter Pilots Association has over 10,000 members and has the most complete data base on the Vietnam War Helicopter History available. Also, some wonderful sounds and photos.

I've been a member off and on for a while. The sounds from Vietnam makes for some good listening. Here's a link from my old unit. It's got some recordings that bring back some old memories.
