Subj: X- Nam Chopper Bumb
Date:3 March 1997
From: Psmoke8160@Prodigy.netI ran across your stuff on this damn computer I'm still trying to figure out. Anyway though I would drop you a quick note and mention that in the summer of 1969 (by the way Army here) I was going through helicopter gunner school down in Ft. Rucker, Ala. and just by the luck of the draw I was one of only 3 Army guys the rest of our class was 14 Navy Seawolves. Our class leader was a 1st Class Petty Officer. Anyway thought just possible you might know someone who was there at that time. I don't remember any names. I went on later to Nam from early 70 to late 71 15 months+, even flew some missions down in III Corp, over by the parrots beak and the Cambodian fence. I was with an outfit called PipeSmoke at that time, we were a combat recovery unit. Well got to run for now.
SeeYa
These were the guys that 'hooked' most of our recovered birds! ...Robt.
