Bruce Crandall was the heli pilot in WHEN WE WERE SOLDIERS. Never thought he was UW alumni like my uncle.

One of the platoon soldiers said that if he did NOT fly in those ammo and came back to pick up the wounded/dead while under fire constantly , they would have all been slaughtered.

Maj. Bruce Crandall stepping aside so that Capt. Ed Freeman could be awarded the Medal of Honor shows what a great man he is. I love this pic of President Bush awarding his MOH, you can see just how proud Maj. Crandall is.
