Awesome Soldier! One year for our Veterans Day lunch we had an employee's Father come speak. He was a Vietnam Huey pilot. He started off his speech very solemnly and placed a mangled piece of metal on the podium. He stated that his speech would be about that piece of metal and what it entailed. Holy crap batman! What a speech!
He was part of a 3 flight gunship during the Tet offensive. That piece of metal is what they removed from him after the battle that day. He flew with it most of the day, even re-fueled with it. There was alot more to the story, but just dang!
Our Vietnam Soldiers were/are AWESOME! Crying shame what our country did to them....
Semper Fi.....from an Army guy.
